Psychosocial.org came out of the careful work of Lindsay Stark. Lindsay organized the "Tending the Helper's Fire: Mitigating Trauma and Stress in International Staff and Volunteers" conference at Notre Dame University's Kroc Institute in 2004, and then coordinated the creation of this website. Lindsay has since left Action Without Borders, but she remains involved in the Psychosocial project.
Psychosocial's development was also assisted by three dedicated interns: Amy Nuzzolese, Tonya Williams, and Susan Wong.
