Mission Moment: Retreat Impact

June 25, 2019

Welcome to our new blog series, "Mission Moment!" It's a snapshot of the impact our mission and programs have on the women we serve. If you have any questions about Here for the Girls support services and programs, email support@hereforthegirls.org!

Our goal is to help women step outside of their comfort zone and live life NOW! One of the ways we do this is through our annual retreat where we provide sessions designed to empower our members to find their new normal after a breast cancer diagnosis. Check out what one of our members had to say about the experience.

"So I did a thing this weekend… stepped so far out of my comfort zone. I went to a wellness retreat for young women with breast cancer. I only knew a handful of women out of the 90 of us there and I really did the best I could to not totally hide in my shell. I had a blast. I met some of the bravest, most badass, most beautiful women ever! [I was] surrounded by so much love and positive support. [I received] great tools and guidance to take home and really start bringing some closure to my emotional healing."
