Magnolia Harbor Carefarm is a therapeutic program with highly specialized, evidence-based therapy for those who have experienced traumatic grief and loss and trauma. Magnolia Harbor Carefarm is also a sanctuary for all beings and is a sanctuary for more than 50 rescued animals.
Do we adopt out our sanctuary animals? The question sometimes arises about whether we facilitate the adoption of our rescued animals. Once animals join our sanctuary, they live out their lives at Magnolia Harbor. We do not facilitate adoptions, we adopt rescued animals with the sole focus of them living out the rest of their lives in our sanctuary knowing only love and compassion. We honor the bonds of animals and do not separate animal families or bonded animal friends.
WHAT IS TRAUMATIC GRIEF?
Traumatic grief occurs with the loss of someone you love due to:
- Sudden and unexpected death
- Violent and/or disfiguring death
- Death after prolonged suffering
- Untimely death
- Multiple, cumulative deaths
- Death with threatened death
- Death of a child at any age & from any cause
