What We Do:
Real Eyes Truth is a 501c3 non-profit organization founded by local people to support the community needs on Cape Cod and the New Bedford area. Invested in a movement of collective healing, we aim to create a paradigm shift from a society of separateness to an integrated model of community. Our work focuses on healing from the effects of intergenerational and cultural trauma that has affected individuals and families. We foster safe spaces for people to restore their connection to themselves and the community through a holistic approach. Dismantling the current mental health idea that individuals are the problem who need treatment, we focus on creating group environments that support purposeful healing, community connection, and growth.
