PTSD and Its Impact: A Talk With Dr. Noni Gaylord-Harden, Professor of Psychology

PLPM Building, Room 100
Description
The Ukrainian Club at Texas A&M University invites you to an evening of understanding, reflection, and healing through a special talk by Dr. Noni Gaylord-Harden, Professor of Psychology, on Wednesday, December 3, at 6:00 PM in PLPM Room 100.
This event will focus on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and the lasting effects of war, violence, and traumatic loss on individuals and communities. Dr. Gaylord-Harden will explain how trauma can alter emotional processing, relationships, and daily functioning — and how resilience, community, and coping strategies can foster recovery.
While Dr. Gaylord-Harden’s primary research centers on traumatic stress, resilience, and community healing among Black youth and families, her expertise offers universal insights into the psychological impact of trauma and the protective factors that help people navigate and heal from devastating experiences — including those caused by conflict and war.
Attendees are encouraged to participate. A Google Form will be available for submitting questions before or during the event.
Open to everyone — students, faculty, and the Bryan–College Station community.

Whether you follow Ukraine on the news because of the war, or would like to learn more about this country at the center of Europe, its rich culture, history, and freedom-loving people, our Club is the right place for you!
Alongside raising awareness about the military invasion of Ukraine and the suffering the Ukrainian people endure, we also present the other side of Ukraine with its creativity, long-standing traditions, delicious national cuisine, eye-catching art, and beautiful music from rock to folklore & classical. Over the last two years, the Club organized multiple socials, bake sales, fundraising events, concerts, documentary screenings, and Easter egg-painting workshops.
The Club is open to new ideas, contributions, and initiatives. We welcome everyone curious about other cultures, languages, or who is just looking for a supportive and sincere community.
