Ways to Give
Idaho kids need your help.
Our state has one of the highest rates of trauma in the country.
Trauma has a dramatic impact on a young person's developing brain. When kids experience trauma, they react with a wide array of behaviors that prevent them from being able to function or thrive in the world. Giving these young people access to proven therapies and services they need can stop their trauma from holding them back. By donating, you can change the trajectory of their entire lives.
