Scalable Trauma Interventions

Culturally Adapted Assessment & Treatment

Our vision > Democratizing access to trauma-informed care for anyone, anywhere

The Problem

Although we have many science-backed treatments for trauma survivors, most trauma survivors never get quality treatment

The Opportunity

We have an abundance of people who can be taught to deliver therapy

Most people own a phone/smartphone, which can be used to train and to augment direct services for trauma survivors

We have plenty of assessments and treatments backed by science, that we can culturally adapt

We know enough about scaling treatments, so we can create anywhere from single-session packages of care to multi-session complex treatments to suit all needs

The Solution

Innovating (1) scalable trainings and (2) scalable treatments to improve population coverage for those needing care

Working in partnership with communities and health systems to integrate these scalable treatments into multiple pathways
