Dear Friend
Today is #GivingTuesday – a day where we take action to show that #ittakesacommunity to make a difference. Trauma and mental health are often the silent struggles of so many we know and love in our lives.
Did you know that last year Canadians generously gave over $20million to charitable causes close to their hearts?
#NotAllWoundsAreVisible but with your support to Trauma Practice, we are helping individuals heal beautifully – inside and out.
Why? Because studies have shown that nearly 76.1% of us have experienced a significant trauma in our lifetimes.
76.1% have not been heard! Most do not have access to group support, resources or self-care tools to heal. This number does not even include the collective trauma we have all been going through during a COVID-19 pandemic year, and the increased levels of isolation that has come with it. You know them – a friend, a loved one, a colleague, a neighbour; each one struggles with the hidden scars that lie just beneath the surface of everyday living.Last year alone, Trauma Practice was able to help numerous groups and individuals in the GTA and across Ontario with support programs and freely provided mental health tools.
It takes a community of generosity and support to make our programs and online resources available to so many who are brave enough to come forward and ask for help.
