What is TRAUMA?

“Trauma can happen after you experience an event or events that hurt you physically or emotionally.”

“Trauma can have lasting effect on your mental, physical, and emotional health.”

As we approach the 20th Anniversary of 9/11, we honor those that perished.

Let us continue to lean on one another.
If you, or a coworker are struggling, please reach out.

We remain a 24/7 confidential resource.

Thank you.

Your DCA Employee Assistance & Professional Standards Team.

Together

We have weathered the storm, the hail, and the rains. And gone through much turbulence that’s rocked us and our planes.

We’ve stood by each other no matter what Wings,

To fight for improvements true Unity brings.

We’ve overcome bankruptcy, furloughs, and stress.
And forged through mergers, with both loss and success.

We have watched as our aircraft have crashed to the ground.
From cowards on 9/11 who failed in keeping us down!

We smile through face masks, on chaotic flights.
While worrying about our own health and the fear it ignites.

If we can’t lean on each other, or offer hugs of support.
We will again rise to this challenge with strength and rapport.

So let’s reach out to one another, as Flight Attendants do best.
Yes, we have weathered these storms and will conquer the rest!
