After training two practitioners from Gaza, we set up a child trauma clinic there with our partners, IMET 2000 and Firefly International in July 2019.
Watch this short film to learn more about the challenges facing children who live in the Gaza Strip, and why we need to keep this clinic running.
Audit report 2021
Analysis of data from a study assessing the effectiveness of CATT with 69 children treated at a Children’s Trauma Clinic in Gaza in 2019-20, showed that CATT significantly reduced trauma symptom severity in children and young people experiencing cumulative and ongoing stressors from conflict, violence and associated socio-economic instability, including those with chronic symptoms. Limited data from a small follow-up group indicated that CATT may increase children and young people’s psychological resilience and mitigate the impact of further traumas.
