A Practical Guide for Crisis Response in Our Schools Brad Lindell, Ph.D., Mark D. Lerner, Ph.D., Joseph Volpe, Ph.D.
A Practical Guide for Crisis Response in Our Schools conveys critical information to assist
schools in responding effectively to “everyday crises” as well as school-based disasters. It is
an invaluable resource for administrators, support personnel and faculty. By reaching our
school families early with a comprehensive Crisis Response Plan, we can potentially prevent
the acute difficulties of today from becoming the chronic problems of tomorrow.
A Practical Guide for University Crisis Response Mark D. Lerner, Ph.D., Brad Lindell, Ph.D., Joseph Volpe, Ph.D.
A Practical Guide for University Crisis Response provides a structure and process for
effectively managing the wide spectrum of university-based crises - from the seemingly
mundane to the most severe. It is an invaluable resource in preparation for, and during, actual
crisis situations and serves as a meaningful standard for our nation’s colleges and universities.
This guide recognizes that crisis response cannot be delegated solely to administrators and
members of the Crisis Response Team. Effective crisis management is the responsibility of all
university personnel.
Comprehensive Acute Traumatic Stress Management Mark Lerner, Ph.D. and Ray Shelton, Ph.D.
Acute Traumatic Stress Management offers “practical tools” for addressing the wide
spectrum of traumatic experiences—from mild to the most severe. It is a goal-directed process
delivered within the framework of a facilitative or helping attitudinal climate. ATSM aims to
“jump-start” an individual’s coping and problem-solving abilities. It seeks to stabilize acute
symptoms of traumatic stress and stimulate healthy, adaptive functioning. Finally, ATSM may
increase the likelihood of an individual pursuing mental health intervention, if need be, in the
future.
