COMMUNITY
INVOLVEMENT

Mental health problems like trauma–particularly as a result of sexual violence–can be devastating to all of us–individuals, families, and communities as a whole. That’s why Hope For The Journey is committed to engaging the public and partnering with organizations in efforts to heal trauma and end sexual violence.

Research shows that when a community has access to evidenced-based mental health services and sexual education, members of that community have a better chance to heal abuse wounds and protect against sexual aggression.

Community Support

Together, we can do great things. Hope For The Journey is committed not only to providing the best trauma and sexual abuse treatment for the Austin-area, but also to supporting our local and global community partners. As such, we pledge 5% of profits to local non-profits also working to end and heal violence in Central Texas.
