In the wake of disaster or collective trauma, timing matters. In this episode of Scaling Up Your Impact, Kelly Smyth-Dent breaks down the key differences between Crisis Response and Early Intervention, and how two powerful AIP-based group protocols—ASSYST-G and EMDR-IGTP—fit into each phase.

You’ll learn:

  • When to use each protocol for maximum impact


  • How ASSYST-G helps stabilize acute stress symptoms and prevent PTSD


  • How EMDR-IGTP supports deeper trauma processing three months after an event


  • Why having both skills makes you an indispensable resource in humanitarian and community care settings


Whether you’re in private practice, agency or school based, or at a treatment center, this episode will help you understand how to bring the right intervention at the right time—so healing can begin sooner.
