The ​Pastoral Care: Black Trauma Network (PCBTN) was born the week of the killings of #AltonSterling and #PhilandoCastille (Jul. 2016).  PCBTN is an interfaith team of persons with an expertise in pastoral care and race trauma. This is a free non-profit service available to persons across the country and Canada.  We provide pastoral care for individuals experiencing triggers/trauma from the continuous killings of Black people as well as provide street counseling and facilitate group sessions for social justice activists.
