Grass Lake Sanctuary

Grass Lake Sanctuary's women's wellness retreat program serves women breast cancer survivors in the southeast Michigan area with an emphasis on those who are low-income and under-served. The program addresses the sense of isolation and disconnect that can follow medical treatment by cultivating a deep sense of connection and belonging among program participants. Survivors benefit from the health and longevity impacts of connecting to others, getting outdoors, eating better and exercising more often, and therapeutic massage. By reconnecting with themselves and others, their bodies and the natural environment, we increase quality of support, increase breast health, and reduce cancer risk.
