Trauma Recovery Alliance Inc

About Us

Our Why

Because too many of our veterans and first responders are fighting battles long after their service ends and they’re doing it alone.

?

They face burnout, trauma, job loss, and isolation at rates that should alarm all of us. In Charlotte County, they’re 10X more likely to face a mental health crisis with suicidal thoughts than the general population.



Not on our watch.



TRA (Trauma Recovery Alliance) was built by and for those who’ve walked that road. We’re not here to patch holes in a broken system we’re here to rebuild it from the ground up. Peer-first. Purpose-driven. Community-rooted.



We offer more than “support.”


We offer paths to real healing, belonging, and opportunity.

Workshops and Events that create connection without pressure

Job and Business Pathways that restore dignity and income

Peer-Led Support with no red tape, no judgment

Local Partnerships that build lasting impact together



This is where service meets the next chapter. And no one writes it alone.

Why We Started

TRA was born from a simple but urgent truth: recovery is possible, and no one should have to walk that path alone. Our founders came together with a shared vision: to bridge the gap between trauma informed knowledge and real world, accessible healing practices. We saw too many people fall through the cracks: misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or simply unheard. We knew there had to be a better way.
