LifeBridge’s Trauma-Informed Community of Practice (TI-CoP) brings together leaders and direct service providers to strengthen trauma-informed practices. These sessions create space to deepen understanding of trauma, share effective strategies, and support one another in building healthier, more resilient communities

In July, we welcomed guest speaker Jennifer Goldman Fraser, PhD, MPH, Director of Research and Evaluation at the Safe Babies Program, ZERO TO THREE, who shared meaningful insights on building trauma-responsive courtrooms. You can view the discussion on our website.

We hope you will join us for our next session on September 23. Registration at link in bio. 🔗

Stigma is just a story we’ve been told, and it’s time to rewrite it. Mental health challenges are not weakness, they are part of being human. The more we speak openly, the more we replace silence with connection, and judgment with understanding.

Imagine a world where asking for help feels as natural as saying you’re tired or catching a cold. That’s the world we can create together when we choose acceptance over shame and compassion over stigma.

If you’re struggling, know this: you are not alone, and support is always here. Call us at 203-368-4291 to schedule an appointment.

We honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and reflect on the bravery, compassion, and unity that emerged in the aftermath. We carry with us the memory of those who were taken, and we stand with the survivors, families, and first responders whose lives were forever changed.

This time of year can bring up deep emotions in our community. If you or someone you care about is struggling, please don’t hesitate to reach out: 203-368-4291. We’re here to listen and support.

It’s ok to not be ok.

We say it often, but it’s not always easy to believe, especially when stigma, shame, or silence make it feel like you have to hide what you’re going through. If you’re struggling with stress, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm, you’re not weak, broken, or alone. You’re human.

Mental health is health. Just like we seek support for a broken bone or a chronic illness, we deserve the same care and compassion when it comes to our emotional and mental well-being.

At LifeBridge, we’re working to break down the stigma that keeps too many people—parents, teens, caregivers, and entire families—from reaching out for help. There is no shame in needing support. It takes strength to speak up.

If you’re feeling the weight of it all, we’re here to listen and walk alongside you. You don’t have to go through it alone.

Call us today at 203-368-4291.
