The Advocates / Sun Valley Steadfast
Rainbow® Sandals Foundation recently donated to The Advocates located in Hailey, Idaho. They also run and support the program Sun Valley Steadfast. It’s a therapeutic healing intensive for women survivors of sexual abuse. The intensive is four days long and involves experiential interventions with horses, art, psycho-education, individual sessions, and movement.
Sun Valley Steadfast is unique in that the trauma intensive is based on cutting-edge neuroscience using the most effective trauma therapies from the Trauma Resource Institute, Somatic International, EMDR, and Polyvagal theory. SVS focuses on the strengths and resources of the group to create a safe environment for individuals to heal. It is located in Bellevue, Idaho, in a beautiful natural setting, and has a retreat environment.
