NEWS FLASH

"Trauma Response  & Intervention Movement"
TRIM is a seamless network of collaborative partners committed to impact varying sectors of the community, beginning in an 8 block radius, until all sectors are included.  TRIM is a Community-Based Trauma Informed Care (TIC) initiative that seeks to prevent, reduce, intervene in and recover those who have experienced or are in traumatic situations.  The conduits through which this TIC initiative will flow are CBOs, church/faith-based, crisis centers/hospital that will anchor Community Residents/block clubs in each 8 block radius.  Together we can ensure that Trauma is brought to its knees in the lives of children and the communities that make up our city.  We are committed to community wellness, which is why we continue to offer all families the best service and referrals possible, as well as the tools they need to become and remain whole.  Please feel free to join us in the planning stages of this movement.

Organizing meetings will be held on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at:
Sinai Community Institute
2653 W. Ogden Ave
Chicago, IL 60608
