#136 - How Dads Can Support Trauma Healing by Forming a Yard Brigade with Jim Hebert

 

Most of us have known a family in medical crisis. However, what we don’t always know is how we could possibly help a family experiencing major grief and loss. This Trauma Healing Learning details how to create a network of support for families in need. Learn how to appoint “Quarterbacks” to specific tasks, as well as the value of a central communication system, “Point Persons” and how to avoid overwhelming those volunteering. If you’re a hard-working and yard-working Dad, consider pitching in by making the outside of someone’s home look like a beautiful trauma healing sanctuary. No act of kindness is insignificant, and yard work is sometimes overlooked. Your home is a sanctuary, and it can look like one too. Love and beauty can help heal heartbreaking trauma. Join Louise in her emotional recollection of the time a dear friend, Jim Hebert, performed this gardening kindness, along with a brigade of Archer’s Army.
