The word Strong has several meanings, “possessing skills and qualities that create a likelihood of success.” “Powerfully affecting the mind, senses or emotions.” At Vegas Strong, we understand that emotional, physical and psychological trauma occurs to several of us, and for some it is accepted as a normal part of daily life. If not addressed, this trauma can have many negative side effects. Vegas Strong was established to help facilitate the healing process and to expose the Strong person inside all of us. Our goal is to provide a safe and trusting environment in which the healing process can be fostered.

Everyday people of all ages experience traumatic events. These events include natural disasters, mass shootings, being involved in a toxic or abusive relationship, losing a parent, child or other loved one close to you, being bullied and many others.
