notebook: Rebuilding Communities: Training trauma survivors to help communities heal after atrocities

In this notebook we learn about how the Center for Victims of Torture (CVT) created local and and long-term capacity building projects in Guinea and Sierra Leone.  The CVT trained local refugees to be "mental health specialists" and gave them the skills to begin to rebuild their communities.  This notebook may provide tactical ideas to those assisting these communities trying to rebuild their lives.
