About Us
We Believe That Emotional Healing is a Human Right
Our mission is to offer free, community-based mental health support to those often left out of traditional systems without stigma, cost, or barriers.
The Story Behind Healing Horizons
Healing Horizons was born from the lived experience of community organizers who saw the mental toll of separation, trauma, and systemic neglect. We came together to imagine something better: healing through connection.
What Makes Healing Horizons Unique
- Trauma-Informed: Centering safety, choice, and empowerment
- Culturally Sensitive: Honoring language, heritage, and experience
- Peer-Supported: Led by community, for community
Partnership with Loyola and Depaul Universities
Through this partnership, MSW and RFMS students co-facilitate groups while earning clinical hours. Together, we grow the next generation of trauma-informed leaders.
Join The Team
Our team includes licensed therapists, trained volunteers, community leaders, social work students and refugee and forced migration studies interns. Many of us have walked this path ourselves.
