DONATE
Why Your Donations Are So Important! The EMDR Research Foundation is sustained by a small number of annual donors and our Visionary Alliance members. Each year, annual giving provides funds for the coming year’s grants. Each year’s fundraising efforts are a vital step towards creating more opportunities for grants in the future.
Current Research Priorities
-
Advancing evidence-based practice in key clinical areas
-
Exploring the use of Standard and Early EMDR Interventions to address the Global Burden of Trauma
-
Building Clinical Evidence in areas where clinical evidence is positive, but research is lacking
Join the Visionary Alliance
Become a Visionary Alliance donor with a monthly pledge of $25. Consider a tribute gift of $25, $250 or $2500 in the name of a loved one, friend or colleague, or simply in the name of EMDR Research. Additionally, this might be the right time for you to consider your planned giving arrangements.
Suicide Prevention & Survivor Support Fund
Suicide. Despite advances in mental health treatment, suicide rates are steadily on the rise in all age groups.
Suicide is the tenth leading cause of death each year in the United States. Each year over 44,000 people die by suicide, and for each one of those, 25 have tried. On average there are 121 completed suicides in the United States each day (American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.) For each person who takes his or her own life, there are myriads of family members and friends who live with the aftermath. While there are hypotheses about the causes and the effects, solid knowledge is very limited.

EMDR Early Intervention (EEI) Fund
Established in 2018, the EMDR Early Intervention (EEI) Fund is a dedicated research fund for those donors who want to direct their resources to support research exploring the long-term effectiveness of EEI and to evaluate whether it can prevent the eventual development of PTSD.
The incidence of crises, whether personal violence, political trauma, the impact of war, or natural disasters, are rampant and increasing in our world today. Experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event directly leads to an increase in human suffering, but also impacts communities and entire regions by reduced productivity, decrease in educational opportunities, and a potential increase in violence and renewed trauma.
Hope for the Children Fund
(Global Child EMDR Alliance The Carol York Memorial Fund)
The Global Child EMDR Alliance is dedicated to collecting, creating, and sharing resources for individuals of all ages experiencing increased stress, fears, and despair due to global challenges.
