Our innovative approach to healing changes lives.
Help children learn to access their inner resources under the guidance of trauma-informed caregivers. This is the first step in breaking generational cycles of trauma.
Reach Within focuses on promoting resilience through an evidence-based curriculum that uses rhythmic activity including yoga, drumming, swimming, and breathing exercises. Once a young person feels safe with a regulated nervous system, healthy connection is possible.
Caregiving Certification Program
Reach Within trains caregivers to reframe stressful events. Understanding children’s behavior as a symptom of trauma allows caregivers to positively respond to children’s needs. These imprints of healthy caregiver-child relationships expand to the next generation and beyond.
Young people with a history of trauma are at increased risk for homelessness, joblessness and disordered relationships. Reach Within works to mitigate these outcomes through counseling, mentoring, educational and job advocacy, food security and housing placement.
