About REBOOT Recovery

If TRAUMA is our personal intersection with the brokenness of the world,
then RECOVERY is our personal intersection with the redemptive heart of God.

At REBOOT Recovery, we're helping people overcome trauma so they can embrace a brighter future. Here's how we do it.

Seen & Heard on

A suicide attempt happens every 22 seconds in the U.S.

One life is lost to suicide every 11 minutes.

Suicide is now the 2nd leading cause of death among ages 18-39.

TRAUMA is the root cause of suicide,

and the existing solutions aren't working.

Addiction, poverty, sexual abuse, divorce, homelessness, incarceration, and suicide are all directly correlated with trauma exposure. The U.S. spent $458 billion last year to treat these comorbidities of trauma, and the VA spent an average of $4,100 per person for treatment of PTSD.

Yet, more people completed suicide last year than the year prior.

Which was more than the year prior.

Trauma may be spreading.

But so is HOPE.

REBOOT delivers healing from trauma that actually works.

At REBOOT, we introduce people to the redemptive heart of God through our trauma healing courses and online community. Our programs provide a unique blend of clinical insight and Christian faith-based support. They are safe, private, peer-led, and outcomes-driven. Our military and first responder programs are offered at no cost to participants.

With nearly 400 course locations spanning 40 states and 10 countries, REBOOT Recovery is the largest peer-led trauma healing program in the world.

Key Partners

Faith Based Veteran Service Alliance
among other services, the FBVSA helps to provide military active duty, veterans, and their families with viable faith-based programs that lead to mental stability, physical strength, spiritual growth, and community involvement.

Helping the Homefront
brings financial support to local churches who, in turn, bring relief to their communities.

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.

REBOOT courses are hosted by individuals and organizations of all types, in homes, church buildings, fire halls, apartment clubhouses and everywhere in between. Our courses and their volunteer leaders are critical, local resources for people dealing with trauma or post-traumatic stress.

For more than a decade, REBOOT has proudly partnered with military bases across the nation to bring our REBOOT Combat Recovery courses to veterans and active-duty service members right where they are, at no cost to them.
