Prisons and jails are the most stressful places we have built, and the last places real healing ever reaches. Your gift changes that. It carries practices that settle a human mind and body, and technology that helps even a skeptic feel the shift, through doors that almost nothing good gets through.
And the doors do not stop at the prison gate. The veteran who brought the war home. The first responder who absorbs everyone's worst day. The nurse running on empty. The person walking out of custody into the hardest week of their life. Trauma and chronic stress do the same thing to every nervous system, and your gift meets them at the root, wherever they live.
What your gift funds:
-
Trauma-informed brain and nervous system healing for people impacted by incarceration, chronic stress, and high-stress careers
-
Neuro-wellness technology placed in prisons, jails, and other high-stress settings, for the people who live there and the people who work there
-
Nervous system regulation training, mindfulness, and mental health education, taught by qualified providers
-
Reentry support that helps people carry their healing home and stay home
-
Elisabeth Carson's speaking visits inside prisons
-
Development of Calm Under Fire, the foundation's structured training program
Every dollar works harder here.
We are a young foundation and we spend like one: carefully, transparently, and on the work itself. We never earn affiliate or commission revenue on any technology or product we bring to a facility. We measure what we can and we tell the truth about the results, whatever they are.
The steadiest way to help is a monthly gift, at any size.
It lets us book instructors, place technology, and plan programs knowing the support will still be there next month
