The Healers Forum

A space for survivors, organizations, and advocates to learn, connect, and co-create unique pathways of healing for boys and men impacted by adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and traumatic life experiences.

Too often, boys and men navigate trauma in silence—while the people who want to help them lack the tools, language, and culturally responsive pathways that actually work. The Healers Forum exists to change that.

This is not just a panel. It’s a conversation + training + collaboration space designed to strengthen the support system around male survivors and the communities serving them.

• Practical, trauma-informed strategies for supporting boys and men affected by violence, abuse, incarceration, grief, and chronic adversity
• Insight into how shame, silence, and survival coping patterns show up in male healing journeys
• A clearer understanding of pathways to healing (clinical, community-based, restorative, and faith-informed options)
• New connections with professionals and organizations committed to serving male survivors well
• Action steps and resources you can apply immediately in your work, home, or community

This gathering is designed for:

• Survivors seeking community, language, and pathways toward healing
• Advocates and community leaders supporting boys and men
• Therapists, social workers, counselors, coaches, and traumatologists
• Educators, youth mentors, and school staff
• Faith leaders and ministry teams
• Nonprofits, reentry organizations, violence prevention teams, and service providers
• Anyone committed to strengthening healing-centered support for boys and men

• Healing-centered conversation grounded in dignity and lived experience
• Training moments and practical frameworks
• Resource-sharing and community connection
• Space for dialogue, Q&A, and collaborative problem-solving
• A respectful environment where survivors are honored, not sensationalized
