400 orphans from the El Shaddai Orphange in Kigali, Rwanda greet the 2007 ATFT Relief Team with song. The Relief Team was there to treat the trauma from the street orphans, victims of the 1994 genocide and HIV/AIDS, that call El Shaddai ‘home’. The 2008 ATFT Relief Team will be returned to Rwanda in May with great success.
Relieving Trauma, Cause of Violent Behavior

Peacemakers Inc. is a nonprofit, innovative and effective on-site mentoring organization, Founded by Hank Roberts in 2000. Our mission at Peacemakers is to assist and mentor the underserved youth, both locally and eventually globally.
We will guide them in making better choices, showing them other options, effectively creating positive change in their lives and in the process, bettering our society in general. We exist to help rectify the high violent crime rates, and to reduce the High School drop rates [which are presently 50%] which means 1 out of 2 students drop out.
It would be much higher if we included the escalating middle school dropout rates. There were 124 murders this year in Oakland, CA as of 12/24/12 alone… that is 10+ people a month or 1 every 3 days. We must reduce this high statistic!
We believe at Peacemakers that Trauma is at the root cause of violent behavior among the African American youth!
One of the ways that Peacemakers proposes to help reduce this problem is to implement the use of Thought Field Therapy to eliminate or begin to heal the high Trauma rates in the three major areas of Psychological Trauma: Environmental, Physical, and Emotional. It is our hope that you will view this video and share our vision of helping in the healing of our much troubled, underserved, and traumatized youth, because ‘This is where the Change Begins’.
When Thought Field Therapy is applied to emotional problems it addresses their fundamental causes, thus balancing the body’s energy system and allows the participant to eliminate most negative emotions and fears in minutes. “What’s fascinating about TFT is its quick and painless results, and its success rate is almost unheard of in the field of mental health in any type of treatment over this whole century”–Shad Meshad, President, National Veterans Foundation & Founder and Author of the National Vet Center Program.
Peacemakers exists entirely on school funding, special government grants, and donations from our supporters. The funding, grants, and donations are now stagnant, while the needs of our youth are in crisis. We need your support now so we can continue to assist our youth and to also expand our program locally and globally.
Thank You for Your Consideration,

Releasing Traumatic Roots
Finding Traumatic Roots to Release Today’s Presenting Problems
by Stephen W. Carter, MA, TFT-Dx
As a Quantum-Touch® bioenergy healing instructor I often receive calls from training graduates asking how to handle difficult client situations.
A former student and client we’ll call Karen called asking how best to manage a distance healing request for a longtime friend with serious pancreatic cancer. The cancer had spread to her friend’s liver and other organs. The treating oncologist estimated her friend, we’ll call Jim, had about two months to live. Neither chemotherapy or radiation treatment offered any hope of recovery according to Jim’s doctor.
The protocol for distance healing is straightforward and well known to Karen. Her consultation request related to behavior by Jim’s wife and Karen’s own emotional reactions to Jim’s pending death.
We discussed specific strategies relating to Jim’s wife and then turned our attention to Karen’s emotional reactions. She felt a profound sense of sadness and worry compounded by fear she might be blamed for not doing enough to save Jim’s life. When I asked Karen Continue reading “Releasing Traumatic Roots”

From Trauma to Peace–Your Chance to Contribute
Dear Friends,
This blog is full of many remarkable and moving stories that demonstrate the power of TFT to relieve the debilitating effects of trauma and violence, allowing hearts to open again, and whole communities to revive and move forward.
The TFT Foundation, sponsor of this site, has been working on a documentary to help create the global awareness that entire traumatized communities can help themselves and others end suffering and the cycle of violence. This film, “From Trauma To Peace,” is being produced by an award-winning team and will be of the quality needed for PBS and film festivals.
About 80% of the filming is done. We now need money to finish production, as well as for promotion and distribution. Recently the Foundation began a fundraising campaign on Indiegogo to help raise money for this purpose.
Please, take a stand for peace and contribute to our campaign however you can. Visit the site–donate dollars (check out the perks!)–make comments–revisit our Indiegogo page–and PASS IT ON to others. Give your friends and family an opportunity to further peace, love and hope in the world…especially during this beautiful season of PEACE.
It is activity on an Indiegogo campaign page that makes that campaign successful. Visit our campaign now at http://www.indiegogo.com/trauma-to-peace — and share it with the world! Help make world peace a reality.
With much appreciation,
