David Shrank, CEO of EBTS, and James met and connected sometime in the mid-2000s. Conversations between the two in support of non-profits and other community involvement lead both men to see the value of partnering; they began to pursue opportunities related to mental and social justice issues, personal development, and community.  David’s drive to promote his message of anti-bullying, anti-violence, and mental health’s role in creating a better society was central to many of their late-night discussions and played a key role in the early development of EBTS.

This organization provides innovative and effective approaches to address and recover from severe and persistent trauma and social adjustment issues.  We assist in facilitating pathways forward to achieve success.  EBTS provides effective tools to support and empower our clients. Those who are considered beyond the realm of help can always find ways to improve their lives by accomplishing their goals.
