Healing Gardens- Horticultural Therapy Program
Parks Foundation Calgary is excited to be running three Healing Community Gardens at two sites this summer. Marginalized children, youth and adults are participating in programs at Haultain Park and Lougheed House. This program creates opportunities for individuals, that may not otherwise have opportunity, to access green spaces, parks and recreational activities. Through weekly activities participants set personal goals, and nurture themselves while they nurture their gardens.
This program is only possible because of the dedication and ongoing support of our community partners:
Cerebral Palsy Association in Alberta
Calgary Chapter of Cerebral Palsy
Society for the Treatment of Autism
Learning Disabilities Association of Alberta
Between Friends
Alpha House Society
VRRI
