Our Mission
The Trauma Survivors Foundation seeks to improve the lives of children and families who have experienced a traumatic event by providing mental health services through a network of trained trauma therapists. We grant scholarships to high school and college seniors who are seeking careers in the mental health field in order to promote further research into trauma psychology. We help firefighters, police and EMS with scholarships to attend approved training classes. We train emergency service personnel to provide crisis intervention when a traumatic event occurs.
"Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does"

How You Can Help
We need your help to grow and expand our reach to trauma survivors. Trauma, whether from a motor vehicle accident, house fire, line of duty injury, or a natural disaster, can manifest in various ways. Regardless of its source, the pain it brings is always genuine. By providing crisis intervention and mental health counseling to affected families, we give them hope and the ability to move beyond the traumatic event.
We need your help to educate our future trauma therapists and crisis interventionists. Through scholarships and mentorship programs, we can assist students in unlocking their potential as trauma therapists, enabling them to support families affected by trauma.
We need your help to train emergency services personnel in crisis intervention in order for them to support other emergency services workers during a traumatic incident.
