Trauma Informed Community Building Activities (TICB)

TICB is a holistic approach to community engagement, establishment of healing interventions and a proven method of processing trauma. This strategized structure nurtures resilience and social cohesion in the face of collective trauma. Its strength comes from its ability to bring people together, enabling traumatized individuals to connect in seeking a safe space with life-affirming activities and to break down the barriers that reinforce isolation - thus organically cultivating an environment of mutual support, improved interpersonal communication and heightened solidarity. TICB gives us the opportunity to re-enter society in a functional manner and even to apply the ideals of mutual support and solidarity from the programming within the broader Israeli public. Our activities will connect participants across different trauma backgrounds, through numerous and diverse curated activities such as cultural events, sports, arts, education, volunteering and activism, thus building support networks and reintegrating individuals into society. Ultimately, this provides a return to normalcy and promotes a community of wellness.
