about OnPurpose
people are created for connection.
We are not meant to go through emotional distress alone.
OnPurpose has the staff, resources, and support that youth and their families need. Many of us became therapists and social workers after our own experiences with trauma. We know healing is possible because we’ve lived through it ourselves.
Our Mission
We help youth and their families find hope,
healing, and purpose beyond trauma.
Our Vision
We envision a day communities are equipped to identify and heal traumas to live successful and purpose-filled lives.
