About Whole Hearted

Whole Hearted is a parish-based trauma-awareness resource offered by Catholic Charities USA which integrates spirituality and religious practices with behavioral health. On the heels of a global pandemic, Whole Hearted can be a powerful resource for communities recovering from trauma.

Explore the role of spirituality and prayer in the process of renewal.

Who Should Attend

This workshop is suitable for individuals who have experienced trauma themselves or for those who work with individuals affected by trauma. It is not clinical therapy, but rather a faith-based approach to trauma awareness and healing.

Join us for reflection, growth, and connection. The workshop will be held in-person at Holy Name Heights, allowing for meaningful interactions and shared experiences. We believe that coming together as a community can provide a powerful source of support and encouragement.

Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding of trauma and learn practical tools for personal growth and healing. Register now for our Whole Hearted workshop and take the first step towards a healthier, more wholehearted life.
