September 11 Mothers and Infants
The Project for Mothers, Infants, and Young Children of September 11, 2001 was a ten-year treatment and research project focused on providing care to the families of women who were pregnant and widowed in the 9/11 disaster, or of women who were widowed with an infant born in the previous year. The highly trained group of therapists involved in the project—Beatrice Beebe, Phyllis Cohen, Anni Bergman, Sally Moskowitz, K. Mark Sossin, Rita Reiswig, Suzi Tortora, and Donna Demetri Friedman— offered diverse treatment specialization including adult, child, mother-infant, and family therapy, as well as in nonverbal communication.
Several journal articles and a book: Mothers, Infants And Young Children Of September 11, 2001: A Primary Prevention Project edited by Beatrice Beebe, Ph.D., Phyllis Cohen, Ph.D., Mark Sossin, Ph.D., and Sara Markese, Ph.D. resulted from the project.
