When a state trooper appeared at?Rachel Zimmerman's ?door to report that her husband had jumped to his death off a nearby bridge, she fell to her knees, unable to fully absorb the news. A longtime journalist, she probed obsessively, believing answers would help her survive. She got answers, but not the answer—the answer to the question of why her husband killed himself. And so began years of learning to make peace with not knowing. Join us Monday @ 1pm Pacific as Rachel shares how she confronted the unimaginable and discovered the good in what remains.

Thousands of #veterans and active-duty service members are suffering from #mentalhealth conditions originating from their military service. Census reports estimate that there are roughly 21 million veterans. Since September 11, 2001, 2.8 million active-duty American military personnel have been deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan, and beyond, leading to increasing numbers of combat veterans among the population. In 2024, a pilot study looking at treating veterans through the Community Resiliency Model (CRM)?—developed by our team at the @TraumaResourceInstitute—evaluated the impact of the CRM skills on veterans’ behavioral health and daily functioning. Repeated measure analyses showed that CRM skills significantly decreased distress and increased well-being. Researchers also found strong short-term results for measures of daily functioning with a significant longer-term impact on participants’ ability to control their feelings of being "amped up." Most (82%) participants maintained and continued to use the CRM skills daily to weekly and had positive reactions to the program. Across their analyses, the results of this pilot study suggest that providing CRM training to veterans is a feasible, efficacious, and well-received approach to help address much-needed veteran behavioral health.

?? Last month, the Trauma Resource Institute? sponsored a Community Resiliency Model (CRM)? workshop for community college counselors at the University of Hawaii Maui College?(UHMC). The two-day workshop was facilitated by CRM teachers, Brooke Conway and Magdalena Serrano. After experiencing the deadliest wildfire in U.S. history last year, which devastated communities in Lahaina and Kula, UHMC became a resource hub in Maui for the post-disaster response and recovery efforts.? One year later, UHMC counselors continue to provide direct support to survivors of the wildfires who are pursuing their education and rebuilding their lives, serving as lifelines and bridges to these students and the larger community.? “It was such a privilege to share space and connection with our Maui ?ohana, to ground together in the roots of land and place, and cultivate a felt sense of resilience and healing together,” both Brooke and Magdalena jointly shared. “We look forward to continuing to support and uplift the wisdom of the Maui community, and humbly walking alongside in the journey.” ? *** Learn more about the Community Resiliency Model (CRM)?: https://bit.ly/CRM-about Image credits: Group photo - Brooke Conway FEMA DRC at UHMC: https://bit.ly/3UL9Bgn Indigenous boat: https://bit.ly/48KUZ6g
