“We don’t do therapy here. We help people get connected to the other parts of their wellness,” said Melissa Rosen, Team Leader at Eagles’ Haven.

“A lot of people in the community felt really isolated following the tragedy,” Rosen said. “This is a place for them to come together and meet new people.”

At Eagles’ Haven, survivors can try everything from power yoga and kickboxing to art as an outlet to manage their grief, guilt and frustration.
