Hope After Heartache
ANCHOR Community Caregiver Academy
Equipping caregivers, chaplains, and trauma coaches with faith-based training to serve with compassion, presence, and purpose.
Rooted in Faith. Anchored in Care. Steadfast in Service.
Anchor Community Caregiver Academy (A2CA) is a faith-centered nonprofit training institution founded with a heart for healing and hope. Born out of both a calling and a crisis, our founder, Regina Anderson, experienced firsthand the desperate need for trained, compassionate support in communities experiencing trauma, grief, and crisis.
In response, Anchor Academy was established to equip caregivers, chaplains, and trauma responders with professional, heart-led education rooted in Christian values. With over 20 years of experience in trauma, grief, and loss across clinical, community, and spiritual settings, we are dedicated to cultivating caregivers who can bring light into life’s darkest moments.
At A2CA, we believe healing begins when someone shows up—with presence, patience, and purpose. Our name reflects our mission: to be anchored in care, rooted in Christ, and steadfast in service.
