Mission

To provide holistic recovery services to women experiencing the effects of Substance Use Disorder in therapeutic outdoor environments.

990 for the year ended December 31, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • Conducted two full 6 week sessions that included individual and group counseling, trauma informed care, art therapy, gentle yoga sessions , healthy food choice discussions, and challenging outdoor experiences (kayaking, swimming, hiking, and campfire therapy). All experiential activities were conducted in a combination of open-air and natural outdoor settings to address the physical, psychological, and social dimensions of addiction recovery. During the tax year, the organization served twenty-four women and each six-week session consisted of two days per week. The curriculum for each session contained identical wilderness programming, delivered by licensed clinical staff, certified peer support specialists, case managers, and aftercare planning coordinators all focused on sustained recovery. All clients completed intake questionnaires that examined their opinions regarding initial rehabilitation, next stage recovery, probability of substance use, and other factors that impact their ability to return to being productive members of our community and to regain their sense of self.
