Overview

Community Trauma Response (CTR) helps people and communities recover from the effects of violence and trauma.

Our recovery efforts:

• Address the root causes of violence
• Foster long-term strength and resilience for families and communities
• Help people and neighborhoods heal after violence or trauma

People who experience or witness violence often need immediate and ongoing support.
