15 Years of Miracles: Annual Alumni Weekend
Description:
In 2003 The Refuge - A Healing Place was opened with the specific mission of working with clients who had unresolved trauma that was preventing the from living the full, joyous and abundant life that they so truly deserved. Since then more than 3,000 clients have trusted us to hold the space to do this sacred work. Each year we honor these Refugees with a 3 day celebration of fellowship, fun, connection, strength and recovery! This year is our crystal anniversary and promises to be one of the best alumni reunions yet!
