— ABOUT HEALING HEARTS WORLD RETREATS

Mission Statement
Healing Hearts World Retreats provides respite and care to caregivers of chronically ill, terminally ill and disabled people.

Founded December 4, 2003, Healing Hearts World Retreats is a 501 (c) 3 Non-Profit Corporation.


Vision Statement
Caregivers of chronically ill, terminally ill and disabled people often lose touch with the community; their informal support networks and professional status. It is usual, that caregivers themselves may become seriously ill after losing a loved one. Given appropriate support, caregivers can be rescued and returned to a healthy life and positive future.
