The Resiliency Collaborative

Only 5 days left to double your impact!

A HOPE Seeker can always count on TRC to be a safe space, where they don’t feel like they have to have it all figured out.

That’s the spark we’re funding this sprint. We’re a fifth way there to our $10,000 goal — every gift between now and Oct 10 is matched DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR!!!

Don’t wait for the finish line — give today! https://givebutter.com/double-the-resilience

Today kicks off Double the Resilience and your support matters more than ever!

From Oct 1–10, every gift you make is matched dollar for dollar up to $50,000! Our goal is to raise $10,000 for Where Resilience Begins, honoring the powerful spaces we create at TRC in which HOPE Seekers teens are seen, heard, and supported.

These spaces empower the leaders of our present and the future. You can help empower our youth leaders. Give today and watch your impact instantly double! Check the link in our bio to support our leaders today!

At The Resiliency Collaborative, we embrace and celebrate the rich and beautiful culture we are surrounded by everyday! This Hispanic Heritage Month, we emphasize the voices and heritage the Hispanic community shares with us, with an emphasis on our current and previous Changemakers that have and continue to strive to be the leaders of our communities. From folklore to food, history, music, and dance, the Hispanic Community is an example of what a strong community looks like. This month, we encourage everyone to participate in this celebration by learning the history, supporting local small businesses, recognizing the leaders around you, and indulging in the local events that help us embrace and support Hispanic Culture! ¡Feliz Mes De La Herencia Hispana!

En la organización The Resiliency Collaborative, celebramos la bella y hermosa cultura que nos rodea cada día! Este Mes de la Herencia Hispana, destacamos las voces y la herencia que la comunidad Hispana comparte con nosotros, con especial énfasis en los líderes de nuestra organización actuales y anteriores que se han esforzado y continúan esforzándose por ser líderes en nuestras comunidades. Desde el folclore hasta la comida, la historia, la música y la danza, la comunidad hispana es un ejemplo de lo que significa una comunidad fuerte. Este mes, animamos a todos a participar en esta celebración aprendiendo sobre la historia, apoyando a los pequeños negocios locales, reconociendo a los líderes que nos rodean y disfrutando de los eventos locales que nos ayudan a celebrar y apoyar la cultura Hispana. ¡Feliz Mes de la Herencia Hispana!

Have you ever wondered who is behind the scenes of TRC? We introduce to you TRC’s staff, the people who ensure TRC keeps growing and prospering! They are who make sure that TRC has what is necessary to keep supporting youth and expanding our impact in the community. From organizational strategies, to partnership outreach and program development, TRC is equipped with talented and hard working staff. We appreciate all their hard work and dedication to making TRC what it is!

One of TRC’s priorities is to advocate for mental health, therefore we recognize and highlight the importance of September 10th as World Su***de Prevention Day. This is a day to remember those affected by su***de, raise awarness, and focus on supporting and uplifting those who may be struggling. Let this be your reminder to reach out as support or to reach out for help. September is su***de prevention month, but TRC sees and validates you every single day! ***depreventionday

Last night was the first step into our 2026-2027 Changemaker Fellowship! At orientation, families and changemakers were able to meet part of the staff and learn about the wonderful opportunities and events we have planned for this year. We appreciate everyone for making the time to visit TRC and learn more about the experience that is to come. It was great meeting everyone, we are all very excited to start this powerful and busy year with you guys!

Cohort 3 of HOPE Seekers kicks off on Tuesday, October 3rd at the TRC building, and we’d love to see you. This is a paid, cohort-based opportunity to learn from other Wake County high school youth leaders on different mental health topics, coping strategies, and ways to advocate for your peers. To join Cohort 3, please visit the link in our bio or using this link: https://unc.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1GHCUwUOhE0LQ0e.

TRC offers many opportunities to empower our youth! One of our powerful programs is HOPE Seekers, a peer-led program that empowers youth with mental health strategies and leadership development. This program was created in collaboration with TRC and UNC Gillings School of Public Health, equipping students with the tools to be inclusive and equitable mental health advocates. This summer, we decided to expand our impact! We led a HOPE Seekers Facilitator Intensive, training eight new HOPE Seekers Facilitators—now ready to step into their leadership by guiding future HOPE Seekers. We are very proud of our dedicated HOPE Seekers Facilitators and are more than excited to see them shine as leaders!
