This book serves as a resource guide for practitioners, counselors, child protection workers, and human service professionals in Guyana and throughout the Caribbean who seek to promote community mental health in their unique cultural contexts. It draws upon the learning and experience of thirteen Guyanese professionals who completed an Interdisciplinary Master of Arts degree at Lesley University in 2014, focused on trauma sensitive assessment and intervention for children, families, and communities. Each of the graduates of the Lesley University/Guyana Program completed a final project focused on a particular population and issue, researching and analyzing the issue and developing and presenting a workshop for colleagues or clients. Throughout the book their voices and experiences apply new understandings and skills to work in varied contexts within Guyana. The book provides practical real life examples of community mental health promotion by dedicated professionals committed to making a difference.
