The Experiences of Project Liberty Crisis Counselors in the Bronx
Tóm tắt
This exploratory study collected qualitative interview data from Bronx-based crisis counselors associated with the post-9/11 recovery program Project Liberty. Two focus groups from a single area provider were conducted to identify key thematic issues regarding program implementation. As conditions in the Bronx were demanding, the descriptions of relief efforts as told by these workers are informative for developing models for emergency service response in marginalized areas as well as in locations that are not directly impacted by events but are in relatively close proximity.
