Where there is trauma, there is also the promise of healing and restoration. The journey to healing may be long, but it is a path filled with hope and the possibility of renewed life.

Trauma Healing was founded out of a profound need recognized by the American Bible Society and Bible Societies worldwide. For decades, these organizations worked in communities ravaged by war, disaster, and widespread suffering. They observed that people were not only enduring physical and material hardship but were also deeply wounded emotionally and spiritually by these traumatic experiences.

It became clear that offering scriptures alone was often not enough; people needed a safe space and structure to process their pain, grieve their losses, and find biblical truths that spoke directly to their suffering. Thus, the Trauma Healing Institute was established to equip local churches and communities with the tools and training to facilitate trauma healing, integrating sound psychological principles with biblical wisdom.
