The Israel Trauma Coalition founded in 2001 at the initiative of the UJA Federation of NY
has become a cornerstone in the national treatment of trauma and emergency preparedness in Israel and around the world and a body that provides leadership, and resources before during and after a crisis to produce a continuum of services.
In a world where the frequency of emergencies resulting from climate related disasters or human actions is increasing, correct management of the events becomes more significant than ever and contributes to improving recovery capabilities of the individual, community and society as a whole.
ITC provides a collaborative and holistic approach, combining the expertise we have acquired over the years with the accumulated knowledge and experience of leading organizations and government ministries specializing in dealing with crisis situations.
This unique approach, contributes to the strengthening of national resilience, helps optimize national emergency and ensures continuity of treatment.
ITC operates along the timeline continuum, before, during and after emergency and in recovery – customizing efforts to the needs of the target audiences we serve, including Arab society, Haredi society, immigrants, refugees, people with disabilities, government and local authorities, professional teams and organizations in the private sector. All this, while focusing on the heart of our actions – preparing for and dealing with crisis situations from four facets:
Community and society resilience
Leadership and management skills
Individual and family care
Psychosocial skills
We established and manage resilience centers led by the government, operate regional training centers that provide participants with leadership and emergency management skills and provide organizations with coping resources for the clinical and psychosocial rehabilitation of the community, the family and the individual and to strengthen resilience of care providers.
As an Israeli and global knowledge center in the field of emergency response and preparedness, we work in close cooperation with social activists, organizations, businesses and local and governmental authorities to develop, instill and encourage psychosocial skills and knowledge, manage emergency situations and provide tools for self-help and burnout prevention amongst teams. We respond in real time to crises occurring around the world, through missions that train the local emergency bodies, support local intervention teams in the management of the event and provide tools that help with community rehabilitation.
ITC maintains full continuity.
During routine we study and research content, enhance work methodology and develop the models based on the knowledge and experience gained in the Israeli reality. This knowledge is used for training within various organizations, who in turn distribute the knowledge amongst their teams, thereby contributing to the strengthening of their organizational resilience and that of the wider community.
