Introduction to Video Cases

In this program actors play the roles of survivors of torture. These actor's roles have been scripted. They do not represent any real events. They are fictionalized stories and are apolitical in nature. Interviews and examinations in these scenes are conducted by the staff of the Boston Center for Refugee Health and Human Rights. Click on the links on the left for interviews and examinations for Physical Health, Mental Health, Oral Health and Vocational Rehabilitation.
