The Initiative

Tackling Trauma TogetherFor Humanitarians, By Humanitarians

Broken Souls is about all of us — humanitarians, emergency responders, and frontline workers who struggle with trauma in one form or another, and their loved ones who sometimes suffer from not knowing how to help them when in pain.

Stories from our hearts to your heart.

The #3Ts Network

Mental Health Experts

A panel of professionals ready to address the needs of those returning from missions or living with their lasting effects.

Peer Support Community

Bringing together humanitarians, emergency responders, and frontline workers to support each other through shared experiences.

Loved Ones Platform

A support network for the families and loved ones of frontline workers, enabling smoother reintegration into everyday life.

Broken Souls seeks to raise funds for this programme so that the cost is initially subsidised and, if possible, eventually covered — making services free to those in need of mental health support. Current fundraising channels include the sale of the book and Broken Souls merchandise.
