BELIEVERS TODAY, is a music outreach nonprofit organization that specializes in traumacare, dedicated to serving our veteransand communities through music outreach, technology,education and healing services. We are dedicated to serving by providing affordable housing andtrauma healing through the power of fellowship and music instrumentation. We serve theunderprivileged, andlow-income, as well as, our veterans and homeless. We believe thateveryone should have a safe place and a support system that encourages their healing, growth,and overall well being.
We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization that has been serving and uplifting those in need for over16 years. We offer Trauma Healing through 6 proven core lessons backed by SIM & The TraumaHealing Institution. Addressing these forms of trauma early is a key factor in fighting the horrorsof such outcomes as mass school shootings, gang violence and anger issues. Our program helpsparents to recognize traumatic events and problematic behavioral patterns by hosting family andindividual sessions and community events. We partner with local law enforcement, as well as, ahost of other community leaders, local nonprofits and discuss implementation of our core lessonswhich focuses on trauma healing, mental health and conflict resolution. We help parents toidentify signs of depression, symptoms of withdrawal, behavior changes, mood swings, as well asisolation in order to implement a resolution.
We’ve also been fortunate enoughto serve other surrounding counties such as Cleveland, Gaston, Catawba and Lincoln. With themuch needed upgrades on our miracle bus, we will be able to extend our services to those inneed throughout all areas of NC. Ethnicities and backgrounds that we seek to serve with ourMiracle Bus are Black, Hispanicand White individuals and families of low-income and middle-class neighborhoods, single parents, and veterans, as well as, anyone experiencing trauma andunderprivileged children, among others. This vehicle is important to the community because weaddresstrauma and the impact it has on individuals and families
Our intended audience for this program includes low to middle class incomes, all those affectedby trauma andanyone that cares for them. We serve a wide range of people and all are welcome.With the new equipment on the Miracle Bus we can offer our services on the go with our onlineservice and we would have a better grasp on software stability. We also serve other communitiesin this capacity such as Albemarle Rd, Beatties Ford Rd, North Tryon St, Graham and West Blvdand all others within the 6 Corridors of Mecklenburg County.
Our goal is to be able to offer our trauma healing services to all, especially those families thatare suffering the loss of a loved one through gun violence, senseless killings,naturaldisastersand have no where to turn to ease their suffering. Heal the family and we can heal ourcommunities and streets. In order to do this we must be able to first and foremost seek out thosethat have a heart for caring for others, train them to become facilitators so they may empowertheir communities. We would need to open more training facilities, produce community traumaawareness by identifying the grass roots of generational trauma. By upgrading and outfitting our”Miracle Bus” for SONG ONWHEELS program, we will be able to travel into rural communitiesand launch our programs without worries of internet or wifi connection. We are also one of theonly trauma facilitation programs that speak, provide materials in (4-6) languages and capableofholding sessions online to reach those without access to local transportation or immediatemobility.
The funds raised from the project will be used to launch a six to eight-month CommunityOutreach Program, which will offer conflict resolution, trauma healing and care, grief support,drug addiction support, and arts mentoring and development. Edwards also plans to take tenchildren from each county into the studio to takepart in the documentary and recordingsession.
