Marla Handy, a 2001 alumna of the Mandel School doctoral program, will kick off the series by presenting her book, No Comfort Zone, a chronicle of her experience living with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Handy’s colleague Frank Ochberg, an international leader in the field of trauma treatment, will participate in a conversation with Handy about assessment, treatment and social perceptions of PTSD.
The free talk will be held from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations building.
