VISION
PROBLEM
Nobody is immune to Trauma.
Trauma is complex and its impact on individuals varies from person to person negatively affecting quality of life. In a post pandemic world that is facing many challenges ranging from climate change to women and child abuse, the effects of, and exposure to trauma are amplified.
“Many South Africans have fallen victim to crime, violence, illness or other traumas and many are exposed to frequent traumas. Sadly most trauma victims do not receive the support and help they need.”

With a population of 62 million, 73.8% of South Africans are exposed to Trauma.

“According to a World Health Organization study in 24 countries, 70% of people reported experiencing traumas, with an average of 3.2 traumatic events in their lifetimes. And that was before COVID-19 pandemic – a widespread trauma that increased the risk for post-traumatic stress (PTS) among US workers by 83% over pre-pandemic levels.“
