The Innocent Justice Foundation (TIJF) has provided mental health and wellness programming focusing on vicarious trauma mitigation to support Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force Teams and their affiliates across the country since 2009. Victim serving work takes an emotional toll, because exposure to violent materials and events, or victim stories is a requirement of first responder and hea
lth and human service professions. Vicarious trauma can be catastrophic, resulting in depression, burn-out, and sometimes su***de. The Innocent Justice Foundation is 501(c)(3) charitable organization working to help by offering mental health and wellness training and resources to support professionals exposed to traumatic material and events in the work environment.
