Trauma Resources @ IU Indianapolis
Dean James C. Wimbush tasked the Trauma Resource Committee (IUB and IU Indianapolis) to gather resources that could help graduate students recognize and define trauma in their lives and get the help they need to recover and heal. The committee selected these resources from hundreds of possibilities with attention given to COVID-19, racial violence, intimate partner violence, depression, and anxiety. Resources include articles, books, info-grams, a screening tool, videos, and webinars from CAPS. Also included is information on what to do and where to seek help when/if needed.
Please note, these resources are not exhaustive. Although The University Graduate School provides this information, other units/departments (e.g., CAPS, GPSG) continue to make available relevant and valuable resources.
