“Susie has changed the lives of so many children in America by helping them overcome the trauma associated with abuse. What she is doing is truly remarkable,” Trudy Jacobson said. Susie realized that many children get help after being a victim of abuse with the help of counseling. But she wanted to take it a step further. “Every day I would hear the horrific stories of what's happening to our children. And caregivers, parents would say, ‘Well she's doing alright in counseling but she's going back to her room where the abuse occurred’ or ‘he's experiencing triggers in his room’ or ‘he's not sleeping in his room,’” Susie said.
She added, “And it made sense to me. I thought let's change the environment they're going back to, this room where they don't want to be, where there are bad things - so change the environment.”
Room Redux is a nonprofit organization that specializes in complete room transformation to promote healing in children who are victims of abuse. And they transform the room strategically. “We put therapeutic tools in there. We have to know that the child or the children are in counseling for the trauma or have been through counseling for the trauma so that we know what therapeutic tools to put in their rooms. Whether it be squishees or art supplies, music, punching bags… things like that. We completely transform it to make sure that it’s tailored to that child specifically,” Susie said.
