There are many books dedicated to examining trauma. What sets Finding Strength in Numbers apart from these books is that it is one of the very few, or even the first, focussing on examining trauma from a Community Development perspective. It explicitly aims to discuss a community as the place where we heal from trauma.
Trauma is a common human experience. Almost all of us will have experienced some type of trauma. For some of us, this trauma will leave us incapacitated and exhibiting behaviours challenging to us and those around us. While there is a dearth of material written on psychological interventions for the scar of trauma, Finding Strength in Numbers takes a much different approach and delves into the importance of community in our healing journey. It is in the small and often unexpected interactions with others that our trauma is healed.
Finding Strength in Numbers is written for the layman. The community member who wants to live in connection with their neighbours and wants to create a better place where they live. It will be of interest to Community Development professionals and students.
