The Marjorie Kovler Center is a Chicago-based program of Heartland Alliance International. Since 1987, the Kovler Center has been dedicated to providing survivors of torture with opportunities to heal, access justice, and rebuild their lives with dignity. Today, the Kovler Center is an expert leader in trauma-informed care for survivors of torture and serves as a trusted resource of integrated treatment and services to reach vulnerable populations – asylee, immigrant and refugee adults, children and families, unaccompanied minors, survivors of forced displacement and trafficking, and immigrant and refugee survivors of crime once in the US. The Kovler Center also trains and educates service providers locally and globally and advocates for the end of torture worldwide.
Torture and trauma break the bonds of community, and the Marjorie Kovler Center rebuilds those bonds through its internationally-recognized community-based trauma treatment model.
