Our Grand Rapids-based nonprofit organization is dedicated to providing trauma research, education, and healing through therapeutic trauma-sensitive yoga.
The Project provides free wellness, resiliency- and stress-management programs for people, families, and mental health workers who have experienced trauma.
We reach everyone, regardless of race, age, ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation.
Currently, we offer free therapeutic trauma sensitive yoga programs in partner agencies. Our work includes, and is not limited to: torture survivors, veterans, refugees, neglected children, domestic and sexual abuse survivors, previously incarcerated individuals, those struggling with mental disorders such as anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder, those over coming chemical dependency, recovering addicts, individuals struggling with body distortion, and survivors of traumatic accidents.
Since our beginning we launched a writing workshop, 8 trauma trainings; and 2 trauma informed yoga teacher training, a trauma sensitive care CEU training for mental health care providers, and a CEU training for social workers in trauma stewardship.
