What is CATT?
CATT (Children's Accelerated Children's Trauma Treatment) is a new technique for treating trauma and PTSD, based on a merging of arts/ play based methods and an adaptation of the 'rewind technique' to suit children and young people of all ages and to assist them in the recovery of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) symptoms, flashbacks, nightmares and anxiety. CATT was designed by Carly Raby in 2003 and developed in partnership with children and young people, to ensure that it was both effective and comfortable for them. Between 2005 and 2007, this training spread across the UK and included services such as the Police, Special Schools, specialist projects, Social Services and national charities. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, as were the results of people using it to help children who had been affected by traumatic experiences. Based on the success of the technique, in 2008, Carly was invited to Rwanda to train NGO staff and local community leaders in CATT, to ensure that they could effectively treat children and young people suffering from PTSD symptoms as a result of the genocide. Again, the technique was successful in its treatment of people suffering from PTSD symptoms and Carly was invited back again in 2009 to train at the National Trauma Centre in Rwanda (ARCT). Rigorous independent research is currently being undertaken to investigate the effectiveness of this innovative technique and there have been two publications this year (one in South Africa, and one in the UK) in relation to its success.

Who Should Attend?
Children and young people who have been traumatised say they want support from people they know, trust and see regularly. This may include foster parents, parents, school counsellors, people with specialist support roles in schools and outreach staff on specialist projects. These are the people that children regularly receive support from, and these people are welcome to attend. This course should also appeal to CAMHS staff (Tiers 1-4), arts therapists, and people with specialist roles working with children and young people with mental health difficulties / or in situations where they are in close contact with children and young people who may have been traumatised (Social Services, NGO's, refuges, referral units, domestic violence projects etc.). If you are unsure as to whether you should attend, please do not hesitate to contact Carly via the BAAT email address:info@baat.org. Carly Raby (BA, MEd. Dip.

She has run services for children who have been permanently excluded from school, and held national posts for NGO's in the UK (Young Minds, Mental Health Foundation and Anna Freud/ EBPU) championing the rights of children and young people with mental health difficulties and enabling them to have a voice in relation services designed to improve their emotional well-being.
