Trauma Recovery

Healing After Trauma Starts Here

Grady’s Trauma Recovery Center helps patients and families heal after a traumatic injury or experience. Eligible Fulton and DeKalb County residents can receive up to 16 weeks of free therapy, case management, and practical support to help with recovery, safety, and the challenges that can come after trauma.

OVERVIEW

After Care Services

We see a lot of injuries in our Marcus Trauma and Emergency Center. From a lot of research, we know that someone is at a high risk of being injured again after a traumatic event. We also know that all the factors that may have put you at risk of being injured today will still be there when you leave the hospital. And most things that put you at risk aren’t entirely in your control or easy to change.

Grady’s Trauma Recovery Center can provide you with 16 weeks of free psychotherapy and supportive case management services. We offer services for patients 5 years or older who are DeKalb/Fulton county residents and have experienced any of the following within the last three years:

Burns
Domestic Violence
Firearm Violence
Human Sex Trafficking
Motor Vehicle Collision
Physical assault
Sexual Assault
Stabbing

We want to help. Grady’s Trauma Recovery Center can connect you with the services you need like:

Access to primary medical care
Assistance with finding emergency/safe housing
Case management and assertive outreach
Individual and group psychotherapy
Legal and financial assistance referrals and advocacy
Medication management and support
Self-care education and emphasis

If there are changes you think could help you be safer, let us be your resource. Receive services through telehealth, in-home/community visits, and in-person at Grady. Insurance is not required to participate.

Other Resources

If you are not yet ready for help or are looking for more resources, we hope this list is helpful. Again, we’re here if you need us. Please email us at [email protected].
