Overview

Mission

The loss of a loved one is one of the most difficult life events that a child can face. Tomorrow's rainbow is a special place for children that have experienced the death of a loved one. By incorporating miniature horse interactions with therapeutic play areas and facilitated peer support, children are given the tools necessary to take their own personal grief journey in a way that is meaningful to them. Tomorrow's rainbow is a safe place where children feel, often for the first time, understood. Tomorrow's rainbow provides free grief support groups for children ages 3 years old through high school and their families. Seventeen specialized groups are offered twice monthly and meet year-round. Because grief is a life-long journey, children and teens may stay in group for as long as they like and may return at any time.

What it reported doing in 2025

Peer support groups best practice, emotional support groups that are tailored to children and teens ages 3 to eighteen years old. Peer support groups, miniature horse interactions, equine assisted learning (eal), and therapeutic art and play are facilitated by an experienced team of mental health professionals and trained volunteers to ensure that bereaved youth are provided with healthy outlets to express internalized feelings of grief and loss. This highly effective approach to supporting childhood bereavement reduces the need for clinical and institutional interventions resulting from unsupported grief. Grief support groups help to reduce social isolation by providing camaraderie and emotional support resulting in resiliency and hope for children and teens. Equine therapeutic support services equine assisted psychotherapy (eap) incorporates horses experientially for mental and behavioral health therapy. It is a collaborative effort between a licensed therapist and a horse professional working with the clients and horses to address treatment goals. Eap is experiential in nature. This means that participants learn about themselves and others by participating in activities with the horses, and then processing feelings, behaviors, and patterns. This modality is intensive and includes a therapeutic process note for participants on treatment related progress. Equine assisted learning (eal) utilizes the natural abilities of the horse to mirror participant's behaviors and to "give back" to the participants' instant feedback on interactions, thoughts and behaviors. While this modality is similar to eap, it focuses more on teambuilding, leadership, thinking outside the box and personal development. Eal notes are generalized to the group process and progress upon request. Equine assisted intervention (eai) provides basic horsemanship skills that allow participants to engage with horses to build relationships, foster a sense of accomplishment, establish a routine, improve focus and the ability to follow directions and create opportunities for transference. Equine assisted intervention includes learning to handle horses, groom, feed and clean stalls which promotes internalizing the need for self-care and care of others. In clients with a significant history of trauma, abuse and neglect, negative behaviors start on a biological level. They exhibit higher levels of cortisol and adrenaline, shunting away processing from the frontal cortex to the more primitive areas of the brain. Studies have shown that touching animals produces an immediate, positive reaction in humans, including lowering of arousal and heart rate. Engaging with horses offers instant feedback and self-soothing that offers times of mindfulness and awareness that participants lack in other avenues of their lives. Sand tray is a form of expression that allows a participant to construct his or her own microcosm using miniature figurines and sand. The scene created acts as a reflection of the person's own life and allows him or her the opportunity to resolve conflicts, remove obstacles and gain acceptance of self. Sand tray includes detailed notes on client's insights and processes throughout the session. Sand tray techniques engage participants in an experiential process incorporating figurines and sand to create their "world- and are utilized to create insight and change in participants. Sand tray techniques include a generalized note about group process and progress upon request. Art is the therapeutic use of art making to address illness, trauma or challenges in life. Through creating art and reflecting on the art products and processes, participants can increase awareness of self and others. Art making is an encapsulation of a moment in time - how the participant is thinking, feeling and reacting on that particular day. By engaging in processing of their art making, participants can learn to better cope with symptoms, stress and traumatic experiences. Art services include
