On June 5–6, the PreAct conference will convene international experts at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai to explore new strategies for addressing the mental health impact of mass trauma. A joint initiative between Mount Sinai and Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, the event draws on decades of experience responding to large-scale crises, from 9/11 to the October 7 attacks in Israel.

Among the featured speakers is Dr. Craig Katz, a key coordinator of the conference and Chair of MSSNY’s Emergency Preparedness and Disaster/Terrorism Response Committee. Dr. Katz brings invaluable perspective on building resilience and early psychiatric intervention following disasters.

Physicians interested in disaster psychiatry, trauma-informed care, and global health systems are encouraged to attend. Learn more and register.
