Detailed Description:
Teaching Recovery Techniques TRT was developed by Children and War Foundation wwwchildrenandwarfoundationorg as a tool to support children in coping with their mental reactions to being exposed to war and catastrophes TRT has proven to be effective in reducing trauma-related mental health symptoms in such contexts However it has never been used with children experiencing all the uncertainties and stress of an asylum-seeking context or with refugee children in high-income countries The main aim of the present study is therefore to implement and evaluate the TRT among asylum-seeking and refugee children in the context of four different care conditions 1asylum-seeking children who arrived accompanied by a legal care-taker 2 asylum-seeking children less than 15 years in care centers administered by the Child Welfare Services 3 asylum-seeking children 15 years and older living in asylum centers regulated by the Directorate of Immigration 4 Former unaccompanied asylum-seeking children who have been granted residence refugees and are resettled in a municipality in Norway
