We know mental health care is not a sprint; it's a journey. The effects of trauma can linger long after the crisis subsides. We're committed to supporting our communities every step of the way.

What We Do
Care for the Hidden Wounds
Children and adults in the countries we serve are exposed to trauma, including natural and political disasters, violent crime, sexual assault, and family separation due to child slavery, human trafficking, relinquishment as "poverty orphans", abuse, and neglect.
Rates of anxiety, depression, suicide, and other mental health issues continue to rise, yet
stigma, shame, and misunderstanding keeps people suffering in silence.
​
​
We strive to increase awareness and access to mental health services so people learn
there is a name for their pain, they are not alone, and they can feel better.
