Post-Traumatic Stress in Youth following a Home Fire
Greenberg, Helaine S.; Keane, Anne
Prevention Researcher, v10 n2 p12-13 2003
Home fires are more pervasive than large scale disasters and often lead to property loss and displacement. However, the effects of home fires on youth are often overlooked, especially several months after the fact. In this research, Drs. Greenberg and Keane examine the effects of home fires on youth and suggest practical strategies for intervening.
