This week, Dandelion is calling a lake cabin home, and we're running all our sessions right from this incredible property.
The children we work with are struggling with social engagement, impulse control, and really big, confusing behaviors. Many of their families come to Dandelion because nothing else has worked. But here's what's amazing—week after week, these same kids are proving what's possible when given the right environment and support.
Take this moment: Coach Matt pulling tubers during one of our boating adventures, with children who face daily regulation challenges now laughing, connecting, and absolutely thriving. It's incredible to witness how strong, nurturing relationships can unlock their capacity to navigate the world with confidence and joy.
On Thursday, we're hosting all the parents and caregivers for pontoon rides, a shared meal, and community time—giving them space to be with other adults, to celebrate, and to build relationships with people who truly understand their journey. There's incredible strength that comes from being in a place where you're not judged, where you can simply be together and be understood.
Sometimes the most profound growth happens when we embrace the magic of community, joy, and play.
