World-System and cultural crises are unfolding around the world in various communities and societies. Social healing practitioners are needed at scale to respond to these cascading crises. The transformation of collective trauma is the primary intent of practicing the art and science of social healing.
The Collective Trauma and Social Healing concentration is intended for Master's and Doctoral students in the Psychology and Education programs who aspire to be social healing practitioners in the context of their professional goals.
This concentration emphasizes diverse approaches to collective trauma, regenerative practice, cultural leadership, and restorative justice that have been the focus of the Center for Social Healing established in 2009 at Meridian University.
Meridian’s academic structure gives students the flexibility to navigate the University’s curricular architecture in ways that match their passions, professional goals, and other life commitments.
The structure is designed to serve a diverse student body, who live around the globe, have varied cultural and clinical visions for their careers, and are at different stages in their professional journey.
Students enroll in a degree program, can elect a concentration, and register for one or multiple courses each quarter. In addition to core courses for the specific degree program and anchor courses that represent the Transformative Learning intent of Meridian’s curriculum, students select elective courses that align with their Meridian concentration, background, and career path.
