North Carolina Disaster Response Network Training - After more than a year in the making, the North Carolina Disaster Response Network (DRN) has launched the new online DRN Disaster Mental Health Training Course!
The North Carolina DRN is a network of professionals who are trained to respond to disasters. The DRN was created, in part, because of the growing recognition – by the public and by mental health professionals themselves – that mental health professionals can make significant contributions to the positive psychological recovery of disaster survivors and disaster workers. One of the missions of the DRN is to provide an organized way to recruit, train, liaison, and support mental health professionals in responding to disasters. Our current network listing includes over 450 professionals in North Carolina who are trained and ready to provide mental health intervention. Click here to learn more and register.
