#The Childhood Goat Trauma Foundation The Childhood Goat Trauma Foundation was created in 1982 by a small group that originally came together as a an informal support group for problems that were the result of traumatic experiences at petting zoos

The Childhood Goat Trauma Foundation is the result of their dream. Through its programs and workshops, individuals from all walks of life have been able to live happier

without the ever-present ghosts of their personal goat traumas. Some have made even such progress that they have been able to put their traumas completely behind them

and rejoin mainstream society. No matter what the effects of your trauma, we can help you.

The effects of a childhood goat trauma vary widely from person to person, depending on the severity of their trauma.

Such problems as irrational fears, unexplained twitching, and insomnia could all have origin in a goat trauma.

The Childhood Goat Trauma Foundation is here to help anyone who has suffered a traumatic run-in with goats.

If you think that the foundation can help you please contact one of their counsellors.
