  • Title: Trauma of children of the Sudan: a constructivist exploration.
    Author: Bolea PS, Grant G, Burgess M, Plasa O.
    Journal: Child Welfare; 2003; 82(2):219-33. PubMed ID: 12699285.
    Abstract:
    This article examines the trauma of Sudanese refugee children living in a Midwestern city from a social constructivist view. From a qualitative perspective, the study explored how the Sudanese children, their U.S. foster parents, and social workers from an American child welfare agency described their understanding of the migration experience. Results point to the importance of placing the children's trauma in the context of their own cultures, as child welfare workers assist in the children's adjustment to the United States.
