Welcome to Healing with Horses…

We are currently taking applications for the summer sessions of Healing with Horses. This powerful experience combines equine-assisted activities with grief support for kids and teens ages 5 to 18, and provides a nurturing environment for expressing feelings, learning about grief coping strategies and exploring the healing process with peers who are also grieving a death loss.

Through Healing with Horses, grieving kids and teens:

Develop or improve equine skills
Work together in a safe and supportive setting, gaining trust in themselves and each other
Learn to control a horse, affording them opportunities to feel a genuine sense of accomplishment, greater confidence and inner strength
Share stories and memories, have fun and release physical and emotional energy
Become aware of the many aspects of the grieving process, and discover what will help and support them

When: Runs through the fall on Tuesdays, from 5-6:30 p.m.

Location: Medicine Horse, 8778 Arapahoe Road, Boulder CO, 80303

Register: Call Michon Davies 303-604-5330,

Pre-registration is required to participate.

Healing Circles Mother’s Day Event

During this Mother’s Day, create something that you can hang and that will honor your special person. Kids process grief through play and art so every come and create something together. This art workshop is for kids, teens and families, helping them remember the special person who has died: a mother, an aunt, a grandma, a friend. Wreaths are often the symbols of the circle of life and of seasons.

This event will be held on Saturday, May 7 from 9:30 am. – 12:30 p.m. at the TRU Community Care Grief Services Office, 5565 Arapahoe Ste A, Boulder.

For more information or to reserve your spot, contact Michon Davies at 303.604-5330 or by email at michondavies@trucare.org.
