Chair of the Academy Leads Psych Rehab Consultation in Pakistan

In December 2013, Dr. Veronica Carey, PhD, CPRP, Chair, PRA Academy of Psychiatric Rehabilitation and Recovery, and her colleague, Dr. Barbara Granger, CPRP, traveled to Pakistan for a two week consultation with The Recovery House, a non-profit organization, established three years ago in the urban metropolis of Karachi, Pakistan in response to a dire need for psychiatric rehabilitation services in Pakistan. They provided education, training, and technical assistance for the trustees, management, and program staff in order to provide a foundation for The Recovery House to become an exemplary psychiatric rehabilitation model service and promote interest in workforce development of Certified Psychiatric Rehabilitation Practitioners in Karachi. Read the PsyR Connections article to learn more about their experiences. Also, enjoy watching two videos about their trip.
