the author's response to the World Trade Center Disaster on 9-11-01, as a member of NJ-TF1, a Search and Rescue unit
from New Jersey.]]>
It's been six months since the attacks, and in some ways life has gone back to normal. But "normal" feels different than it used to - teens around the United States have been traumatized by the after effects: stuff like the anthrax scare, the war in Afghanistan, racial intolerance at home. Young people need a space to set their own agenda and talk about the emotional impact of this new climate, and explore how these events continue to affect their lives.

That's where the "Youth Circle" part comes in - this discussion is only for high school students between the ages of 14 and 19. And it's not just your usual run-of-the-mill online discussion either. It's based on the idea of a Small Group Dialogue.”
