Subject:post-doctoral fellowship in dissemination of interventions for child trauma

Child HELP Partnership (CHP) at St. John’s University was recently awarded a Treatment and Services Adaptation Center (Category II) grant to join the National Child Traumatic Stress Network. The CHP Center will train and support the delivery of evidence-based, culturally adapted trauma interventions for children exposed to disaster, sexual abuse, family violence, race-based trauma, COVID-19, and traumatic deaths. Through this project, major stakeholders in children’s mental health–school personnel, parents, and mental health providers–will work in partnership to create a continuum-of-care at 18 sites nationwide. The post-doctoral fellow will learn and implement each of the interventions at the CHP clinic in Queens, NY. Specifically, they will learn and deliver system-level psychoeducation, early intervention delivered after trauma (Skills for Psychological Recovery), and treatment for traumatized children and their caregivers (i.e., Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Alternatives for Families-A Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy). The fellow will then coach CHP Center sites as they implement the interventions. The fellow also will assist with the evaluation of the project. We are particularly interested in early career psychologists who are dedicated to serving multicultural communities. Please see more details about the job and application process in the attached. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
