Mission Statement
Our foundation is dedicated to bringing awareness to the mental health issues that affect our communities. We aid in the healing of individuals and collectives through offering mental health resources and wellness tools in the form of affordable workshops, webinars, podcasts, membership opportunities, and more. We also host fundraisers and fairs that instill awareness and empathy to heal those affected by trauma and other mental health issues.
Description
We are a women-led organization. We hope that this website can serve as inspiration and motivation and help people understand that mental health is as important as physical health. We advocate for breaking the stigma attached to trauma and mental illnesses. This is the primary purpose of why Trauma Speaks was created.
Started in 2017 as a mental health blog to provide a safe space for individuals suffering or that suffered mental health struggles, Trauma Speaks expanded into a podcast and website where psychoeducation about mental health was emphasized alongside personal experiences shared by community members. Now, Trauma Speaks has become a start-up non-profit with the goal of expanding psychoeducation on mental health within the community by providing workshops, webinars, fairs, conferences, etc., to raise awareness about mental health and related issues.
