Trauma healing that works

In 2011, our first course was launched near Ft. Campbell, KY Only a few families showed up, but word quickly spread. Today, REBOOT courses meet in over 300 locations in seven countries and we’ve helped over 9,000 people experience healing.

But it only works if you get involved.

Research + Impact

There is a gap in the scientific literature when it comes to effective faith-based interventions for PTSD. We aim to change that.

Led by Dr. Jenny Owens, OTD, our program evaluation team is adding to the body of evidence that supports the notion that faith-based interventions are both powerful and life-changing. In 2019, our pilot study was published in Military Psychology. Our recent outcomes report highlights statistically significant improvements in pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue, social participation, anger, meaning and purpose, social connectedness, spirituality, forgiveness and overall quality of life among course graduates.

KEY PARTNERS

At REBOOT Recovery, we don’t intend to be a “one size fits all” solution. Rather, we proudly work hand in hand with like-minded organizations who have expertise in areas we do not. We are thankful to the organizations listed below for supporting REBOOT’s emerging model of trauma healing. Our success is due, in part, to their partnership and generosity.

Faith Based Service Alliance

REBOOT is proud to be one of eight selected organizations to serve as charter members of the Faith Based Veteran Service Alliance. The FBVSA is a national alliance of faith based veteran service organizations united to serve America's warriors in partnership with the White House, Congress and Department of Veterans Affairs.
