Overview

Mission

EHA advances trauma-informed well-being practices by developing and supporting practical tools trainings and convenings for stakeholders in key sectors such as education healthcare community services and related fields. Its programs focus on equipping practitioners and leaders with accessible well-being hygiene practices that can be integrated into their daily work to improve individual and collective capacity for resilience and care.

What it reported doing in 2025

During 2025 EHA primarily focused on program development stakeholder engagement and fundraising activities to support future programming. Direct programming was limited while foundational infrastructure was being built. Pilot training programs and related educational initiatives are in motion in 2026.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
