Natural Disaster
McIntosh, Tiara
European Journal of Educational Sciences, spec ed p67-75 Oct 2019
This article presents the natural disaster and how it affects children over the world. When there is a natural disaster occurring such as hurricanes, tornadoes, flooding, it can affect not only the family but the children as well. The children are often left to relocate, live with other family members, or separated from their parents. Natural disasters can lead to externalize behaviors with kids. The Journey of Hope, a school-based group work intervention for children and early adolescents who have experienced a collective trauma such as a natural disaster can assist kids with externalizing behaviors. Through the use of group work interventions such as group problem solving and experiential and reflective learning, children and early adolescent work toward improving protective factors to assist them in their recovery.
