Who is PFA for?
• Distressed people who were recently exposed
to a serious, stressful event
• Both adults and children
Not everyone who experiences a crisis event will
need or want PFA.
Don’t force help on those who don’t want it, but
make yourself available and easily accessible to
those who may want support.
