Our Next Steps...

For related background on the following, visit The Crowning -- And The Next Chapter.

For the past fourteen years, the work of the two intertwined non-profit organizations, the New Horizons Support Network, Inc. and Small “Zones Of Peace” Inc.  (NH/ZOP), I founded, the latter co-founded by Sue deVeer and myself, have presented many programs on behalf of groups and organizations in our closest local community, Frederick, Maryland, most frequently on a pro bono basis that I/we happily considered a way of paying forward.

Among the best known of these have been our Coffee House Conversations, our Abkhazian Dinners and our specially designed "Conflict Resolution And Anger Management #101" programs for the UNESCO Center For Peace for high school students from around the world, based out of Frederick. But there will be no more of these, on our local level. Certainly, not anytime in the foreseeable future.  

Question: So where are we going from here?

Our coming attractions, already in motion include two major priority shifts:

1. Present and future programs, of NH/ZOP for the foreseeable future will focus on reaching out beyond the local for national participation, with an intention of establishing regular, ongoing nationwide conference call support groups, and

2. Opening up our very peaceful Forest Bathing Sanctuary for limited, on-site, very small groups. Maximum 4 people. (Next NH/ZOP Forest Bathing Event. August 22 11:30 - 2:30)
