The two pillars of our work are trauma therapy Intervention and Prevention. We offer holistic interventions for children and caregivers built on three pillars: Felt-safety, connectedness and self-regulation. We use Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) and other evidence-based therapy models including trauma informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and therapeutic approaches based on the neuroscience of trauma. We integrate playful engagement and healing spirituality. Our three main therapeutic activities are Adlaw sa Kasadya (“Happy Day Out”), Empowerment camps and individual therapy.

Intervention

We bring healing and empowerment to children from hard places through holistic, evidence-based, attachment-based, and trauma-informed interventions such as Trust Based Relational Intervention (TBRI). Our group therapy called ‘Happy Day Out’ is a half-day program consisting of empowering play and physical exercises, music, arts, psychoeducation, and empowering relationship with integration of healing spirituality. We also provide one-on-one therapy intervention.

We provide holistic healing and restorative intervention to our beneficiaries built on three pillars: felt-safety, connection, and self-regulation. We use trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) and other research based therapy interventions.

We empower children from hard places through our fun, playful and therapeutic empowerment camps within the sensory rich environment of our Child and Family Therapy Center. Through the Living Refreshed program, we provide space where children and their caregivers may connect with Jesus, so that they may find rest, hope, peace and joy in their hearts.

We provide trainings for caregivers, schools, local authorities, churches and other institutions on a variety of topics on how to strengthen families and protect children.

Prevention

Our desire is that every child grows up in a safe and nurturing environment, that no child suffers from neglect and abuse. To this end, we organize Child Protection and Family Empowerment conferences, together with local authorities, schools, churches and other interested organizations.

Strengthening Families

We support natural or foster parents and other caregivers to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children through trauma-informed parenting and family trainings and workshops. We equip them with trauma-informed knowledge and skills to meet the needs of the whole child.
