Working in conjunction with the GHNI team in Turkey, a team of mental health providers are currently in the Malatya area to provide trauma education and counseling in the wake of the massive earthquakes in Turkey. 

Field workers report that most people in the area are unable to return to their homes and that the majority of the residents of Turkey have been affected in some way by these earthquakes. The team is composed of mental health therapists, counselors, a psychologist and support personnel and will provide groups for the following three populations:  women, children, and community leaders (which will include first responders).
