The Mission of ThorpeWood Since its inception in 2001, ThorpeWood has undergone several transformations. Initially established by a charitable trust, it aimed to serve the community at no cost using the natural resources available on its property. The focus was primarily on helping youth involved in the juvenile justice system through nature-based mental health and social-emotional learning opportunities. After some changes in leadership and staffing about ten years ago, Kaili was hired to realign ThorpeWood with its original mission. Today, the organization emphasizes evidence-based practices to develop nature-based mental health programs. Three Prongs of Service ThorpeWood’s approach to serving the community can be broken down into three key areas: Partnerships with Local Nonprofits: ThorpeWood collaborates with organizations like Centro Hispano, which supports unaccompanied minors and English learners, and Kids Like Us, a program for children impacted by substance use disorders. These partnerships allow ThorpeWood to tailor their programs to the unique needs of each group, leveraging the nonprofits’ knowledge of their clients. ThorpeWood-Created Programs: These include nature-based grief support and other mental health initiatives that Kaili and her team develop based on the needs of the community. For example, grief counseling is a significant part of Kaili's work, enriched by the natural setting of ThorpeWood. Climate Grief Support: This innovative program combines traditional grief support with opportunities for sustained activism. Participants develop distress tolerance and emotion regulation techniques to channel their emotions into meaningful action amidst the climate crisis.

It's National Grief Awareness Week this week, a time to stand together and support one another through grief. 💙 Grief is a natural response to loss, and during this week, we're fostering understanding, breaking the stigma, and offering a safe space for open conversations and support. At 1st Line Future Planning, we believe in compassion and support. This week, we're shining a light on organizations like Grief Encounters, dedicated to helping bereaved children, young people, and families find hope and healing. Let's spread empathy, share stories, and remember that in our collective support, there's strength. 💪💙 #GriefAwareness #SupportInLoss #NationalGriefAwarenessWeek

It's likely that you know someone who's experiencing challenges with their mental health. The persistent stigma around mental health care plays a role in preventing people from seeking help. In fact, more than 30% of Americans still worry about being judged by others for seeking mental health services. A single company, nonprofit, or individual cannot solve this dynamic challenge. That's why Elevance Health President and CEO Gail Boudreaux and professional basketball player Kevin Love are coming together as part of the Elevance Health Champion program - supported by the Elevance Health Foundation - to increase awareness and raise funds to help support programs that improve behavioral health. #MentalHealth #MentalHealthMatters https://ow.ly/OYct30sCOuJ

If you work to support others with grief and loss, read on! The theme of this year's National Grief Awareness Week is about bringing communities together, and this got me thinking about the work we all do. If you haven't come across Grief Specialists before, we're a not-for-profit organisation working to bring immediate, professional grief support for anyone dealing with loss at any time in their grief journey. We also have a directory of grief professionals. The small monthly fee (approx. the cost of two cups of Costa Coffee) goes into the funding pot, which is used to help people who can't afford support to access it. However, it's not just a static directory. Many of us, especially in private practice, work in isolation. For this reason, we: 🧡 have created a community for grief professionals 🧡 refer work to our members 🧡 support each other 🧡 knowledge share 🧡 help anyone deal with loss collectively 🧡 create professional resources together 🧡 provide business support 🧡 ...and have regular virtual cuppas! We'd love to welcome you to our community. https://lnkd.in/eNm3p5bV Feel free to drop me a DM if you have any questions. #griefsupport #Nationalgriefawarenessweek #NGAW #bereavementsupport #grief
