Trauma Recovery Network Australia Ltd
Trauma Recovery Network Australia Ltd (ABN: 81485026434) is a nonprofit organisation dedicated to trauma recovery and mental health support, particularly in disaster-affected and rural communities. It focuses on training mental health clinicians in evidence-based therapies such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) to address post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and related conditions[1][2].

Mission and Activities
The organisation provides specialised EMDR training to mental health professionals in rural and remote areas, aiming to build local capacity for trauma intervention[1]. By equipping clinicians with EMDR skills, it seeks to reduce service gaps and improve access to trauma treatment, particularly in regions impacted by natural disasters, domestic violence, and other adverse events[2].

Its programs prioritise community self-sufficiency, enabling local therapists to manage trauma-related symptoms without relying on external providers. Training is delivered post-disaster to ensure continuity of care and foster peer support networks among clinicians[2].

Collaborations and Recognition
Trauma Recovery Network Australia collaborates with humanitarian programs internationally and adheres to guidelines from the World Health Organization (WHO) and Australia’s National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) for PTSD treatment[2]. Its status as a registered charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) underscores its compliance with national standards[4].

Scope
The organisation operates under a harm-prevention framework, targeting regions designated as disaster-prone or underserved by mental health services[1]. Its training initiatives aim to mitigate long-term psychological impacts, such as generational trauma, while promoting resilience in affected communities[2][3].
