Stoneleigh Fellow Ted Corbin and his Healing Hurt People program is profiled by The Philadelphia Citizen.
Dr. Theodore Corbin, himself born and raised in Philadelphia, designed Healing Hurt People—now in five local emergency rooms—to address the gap between the physical and the psychological treatment of victims of violence. Healing Hurt People’s goal is to improve the lives of victims in the aftermath of a violent encounter by treating the psychological trauma suffered by not only the victim but, in some instances, their family and friends as well. Since it started, HPP has worked with 1,800 victims and even more families, and the model has been replicated in Chicago and Portland, Oregon.
