​to learn together and promote trauma-informed care in the community.

The Greater Charlottesville Area Trauma-Informed Community Network recognizes that trauma impacts the lives and well being of our community members and that ongoing tragic events amplify and add to this trauma. There are no words to express the deep emotional impact of ongoing, lethal, and senseless acts of violence against Men, Women, and Children of Color.  We stand together not only to promote a trauma-informed system but also a unified and just community.

Here are some local resources:
  • Follow this link for the Women's Initiative's list of culturally responsive mental health and self-care resources.
Here are some online resources that may help families and educators to address race and trauma with children:
