Mission:
Our mission is to initiate programs and expand access to wellness services that enhance the quality of our living through individual sessions, classes, workshops, and community events. One example of a Branching Out initiative is the Courageous Art of Living and Dying (CALD) program. This program seeks to cultivate curiosity, conversations, and connections about our mortality by raising awareness, providing support, resources, community outreach, and education about end-of-life issues.
