Partnerships for Trauma Recovery

Partnerships for Trauma Recovery We address the psychosocial impacts of trauma among international survivors of human rights abuses.

PTR joins the global movement to reduce the mental health gap by addressing psychological trauma caused by war, torture, human trafficking, and persecution due to identity and beliefs. We strive to narrow the gap by: (a) Expanding the availability of culturally aware, trauma-informed and contextually adapted mental health services; and (b) Reducing factors that cause trauma through trauma-informed policy analysis and advocacy.

From Survival to Strength

96% of the survivors we served this year are asylum seekers – people who fled unimaginable danger in search of safety.

84.75% are young adults, rebuilding their lives while navigating a new country, new systems, and deep trauma.

Support for our programs makes healing possible through trauma- informed therapy, case management, system navigation, and community connection.
