Spoken Word, Holistic Fitness, Art and Play, this year’s R2R Retreat had it all!

This year’s superhero-themed Rise to Resilience Retreat was about more than capes and masks; it was about discovering the inner strength and healing power inherent within each of us. 

The more than 100 attendees were invited to participate in holistic fitness sessions, like yoga; to channel their creative energy through painting and drawing and tap into mindfulness with bubble blowing – all Rise to Resilience (R2R) activities were inspired by the 7 healing strategies utilized in the R2R service. 

In addition to activities, Just in Time participants and staff took the stage to speak about their own wellness journeys. And JIT alumni Sauna Johnson performed an inspirational spoken word poem written specifically for the occasion.
