 The International Transformational Resilience Coalition

Humanity is in the midst of a civiization-altering event. Left unaddressed, the climate-ecosystem-biodiversity crisis will produce individual, community, and societal distresses and trauma at scales never before seen in modern society. The International Transformational Resilience Coalition (ITRC) seeks to help society get out front of these issues by proactively building population-level capacity for mental wellness and transformational resilience for persistent accumulating adversities. 

The ITRC is led by a National Steering Committee and Federal Policy Team composed of major mental health, social work, human services, climate, disaster response, faith, and other organizations. We also have individual members in many nations. join the ITRC by clicking here.
