To the pioneers who gave birth to the field of disaster mental health . . . what an amazing journey it has been. We didn’t always get it right at first, but we kept trying until we did. And to Patricia Copps Everly and our mutual renaissance! Thank you! (GSE) To all those who have taught me so much about the field of disaster mental health. It is a privilege to be able to share what I have learned. To George Lating, for your willingness to always be there and listen. And to Austin and Jenna, who are the source of my greatest joy.
