Trillium Family Services is rooted in the truth that mental health is an integral part of overall health and well-being. If w ... e can help children today, we can avoid the human and social costs that are inevitable tomorrow. The Adverse childhood experiences study (ACES)* reveals staggering proof of the health, social, and economic risks that result from childhood trauma. Trillium exists to provide hope and stop this cycle of devastating consequence. We are guided by the simple yet crucial mission of building brighter futures with children and families. Our vision is to create safe communities where children are healthy and every family has the opportunity for success. Families get the support they need – when and where they need it. There is a focus on prevention and health; organizations and systems are connected in a synergistic sanctuary community that generates: Non –violence, Growth and Change, Democracy, Emotional intelligence, Social learning, Open communication, and Social Responsibility. Our investment in the future of each child means that the next generation of Oregonians will have the skills to contribute meaningfully through employment, community service, and raising their own healthy families. *the ACE study is ongoing collaborative research between the Centers for Disease Control and prevention and Kaiser Permanente. read more
