We personalize treatment according to the patient’s unique trauma experience. Our staff includes licensed independent social workers, case managers, certified victim advocates, and other professionals who coordinate internal and community resources to help patients navigate recovery. No two traumatic events are exactly alike. STAR-TRC staff work with each survivor to tailor treatment and support to match individualized needs.

The STAR Trauma Recovery Center, one of the first of its kind in the Midwest, is federally-funded through a Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) grant administered by the Ohio Attorney General’s office.
