About Us

Pinetree Institute is a 501(c)3 nonprofit based in Eliot, ME, and Portsmouth, NH facilitating a number of approaches to solving one key issue: the long-term effects of trauma on individuals, and the communities in which they live. Childhood trauma, in particular, can have lasting physical, mental, and behavioral health consequences on the adults we become.

At Pinetree, we offer community based, trauma responsive solutions through the three avenues of education, engagement, and collaboration. We offer access to the latest research, and information about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs), and trauma informed solutions, through:

- Online courses and webinars
- Individualized group presentations and workshops
- Conferences
- Speaking engagements
- Podcasts and videos
- And coordinated community system implementation

Pinetree Institute does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, nationality of origin, religion, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital status, or military status in any of its operations. This includes, but is not limited to, hiring and firing personnel, the selection of volunteers and vendors, and the provision of services.

We commit to an inclusive and welcoming environment for all staff, volunteers, contractors, vendors, clients, and program participants.
