This is a school program with a cognitive behavioral approach and group activities aimed at children and adolescents between the ages of 10 and 16 who have been exposed to traumatic events (neglect, abuse, violence, accidents, environmental tragedies) and who show symptoms of post-traumatic stress. The aim is to reduce the symptoms of post-traumatic stress, anxiety and depression, among others.
The program involves assessing and screening students eligible for interventions, contacting and bonding with families, forming extracurricular groups, psychoeducation about trauma, training in stress management skills, relaxation, problem-solving, and strengthening an emotional support network and assistance services. The intervention is implemented in weekly sessions by trained teachers over ten weeks.
