🎉 We are excited to announce that we have received a grant of $20,000, supported by the William F. Thiel Trust at the Community Foundation for Greater Buffalo.

This grant will be utilized to supplement the costs of our treatment services, as well as support for our therapists to increase their education in trauma informed care and ACEs scores. This gives us the peace of mind, knowing we will be able to continue to provide these services and continue to grow!

We want to formally announce and welcome Erica Wallover to our board!

Erica has been a long time supporter of our organization and we are happy that she is joining our team. Albeit she is far away - living in Wyoming! - she offers a great perspective to our board. She is a registered nurse and works closely with families in her community. Knowing how it is to work with families and to live in a rural area with limited resources, she offers an understanding perspective. We are happy to have her join us!

This is a very important distinction and often why 'gentle parenting' gets a bad rap.

Validating emotions and being supportive does not mean that kids shouldn't be responsible for their behaviors.
We often attempt to teach about behaviors when children are having high emotions but they are unable to absorb the information. First calming them and then talking about their actions is more effective and has lasting behavioral improvements.

The horses have taken the past couple of weeks off due to the cold weather 🥶

But our services remain very active! Lots of art, therapeutic games and Legos!

Due to the privacy of our clients it is hard to share all of the hard work that goes into our organization. We remain very busy with clients and new referrals.
The growth in our clients is amazing to watch.

- this is Molly. She's kind of new here and fitting right in
