Our Values

To cultivate community, sustainability, & personal growth through therapy, wellness, and events.

We believe that everyone belongs.
We believe that everyone can contribute to making the world better.
We believe that through support, everyone can experience personal growth no matter the circumstances.
We believe that connecting with others is vital.
We believe that animals and nature enhance our connection with others. 

It is our desire that all clients and visitors would develop lifelong skills, as well as a greater appreciation for community connectivity, through therapeutic strategies and support, educational opportunities, and relational experiences. 

We are driven by our passions, educational experiences, and our own encounters with both joy and sorrow.  Our youngest son was our hero.  We watched him push through terminal illness with joy because of his personal connection with others, as well as animals. We have seen that same outcome in ourselves and others, utilizing the same access to nature and animals. Therefore, we believe in passing forward those opportunities for shared experiences through WhistleStop Acres.
