FOUNDING STATEMENT
A Personal Commitment
“Resilience Builders was founded in 2016 to help people learn and create change by understanding the impact that adverse experiences have on personal wellbeing and organizational health. For me, Marsha Morgan, this is a deeply personal commitment.
In 2009, after working in the mental health and substance use field for more than thirty-five years, I was presented with information about trauma and our therapeutic responses to trauma. This caused me to passionately pursue everything I could about the impact of trauma, trauma informed personal practices, what organizations needed to do to create trauma informed policies, and the meaning of resilience.
By 2016, it was clear to me that I needed to devote my energy and expertise to sharing what I was learning with any and all leaders who were interested. In the Spring of that year, Resilience Builders was created. In August 2018, others joined the RB Team to inform, inspire and transform leaders, organizations, and communities.
We envision places where people work, learn and play that are safe, build trusting relationships, promote choice, foster collaboration and empower all.”
