The Hidden Scar: Uncovering Singapore’s Trauma Preparedness is a feature writing package on how different sectors of Singapore’s society manages post-traumatic stress, and looks into whether the country is psychologically prepared for crises. Collated into a feature magazine, the stories are split into three main segments, spanning from the preparation measures taken by nation to the social and legal challenges faced by trauma survivors. The stories are interspersed with snapshots showcasing healing options that trauma survivors turn to, aside from conventional psychotherapy and medication.
