The COVID-19 pandemic changed the landscape of programs the Foundation Trust typically supports during the summer months, including many programs for at-risk youth. In spite of the challenges, the Foundation Trust was able to continue making impactful contributions to the community through targeted giving and the development and dissemination of resources on various facets of complex trauma. Click the links below for a snapshot of some of our activities over the last few months.
