A Facilitator’s Resource for Ecumenical Faith and Community-Based Counselling
Up to 80 percent of Africans are estimated to be traumatized as a result of violence, poverty, disease, natural disasters, and other causes. As a continent where the majority of the population are young people, Africa’s adolescent population is particularly affected. Along with common causes of trauma, youth also experience many other struggles related to growing up. But this trauma often goes unaddressed, not only because sexual and gender-based violence become normalized, but also because of the lack of specific services and awareness.
This book addresses this lack. It is an important gift to enhance the role of churches to provide wholeness.
