Critical Incident Stress Management has existed for nearly a century, but its techniques have only been used by and for aviation professionals since the 1980s. Now, air shows and other air events have the opportunity to provide these same vital resources as we pioneer a new way of providing post-traumatic recovery support through CIRCA, the Critical Incident Response Community Application. Come learn how CIRCA can mitigate the after-effects of a traumatic event for performers, volunteers, managers, and anyone who participates in air show production; and helps ensure the future for an air show after a critical incident has occurred. Learn what ICAS and the ICAS Foundation are doing to work with the rest of the aviation community to formalize a program to serve the air show community and how your air show organization could make use of that tool program.
