About the Foundation

The Trauma-Sensitive Awareness Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our mission is to educate those suffering from trauma, and those who love them, with a better understanding of how trauma manifests in the body, brain, and nervous system. Through our website and outreach, we provide information and resources to increase awareness, compassion, healing, and an improved quality of life. To care, you first need to be aware.

Visit our free Veterans Summit on our website to see an interview with Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, world-renowned trauma expert, and 23 other leading experts and pioneering veterans offering healing from traumatic injury.
