Our mission is to empower individuals to heal and restore themselves through nature-based interventions, advocacy, and community engagement.
Walking the Road to Resilience
Bridging the Nature Gap
Nature Healing Walks help people to reconnect with nature and develop tools to live healthier lifestyles and become more connected with their bodies and our environment. With access to the right resources, people can become empowered by their own abilities and gain the confidence needed to fulfill their potential. Join our next H.E.R.O Nature Healing Walk.
Walking the Road to Resilience: Nature Can Help You Heal!
Making Nature Prescriptive
H.E.R.O. Nurturing Center is working with State Representatives Rob Consalvo (D-) and Liz Miranda (D-) to pass the bill SD1631, “An Act Relative to Nature Prescriptions.”
Massachusetts will be one of the first states in the nation to empower social service, educational, mental and medical health care providers to prescribe time in nature as part of their suite of treatment options.
The Bill made it to the Senate! Complete Bill, DOCKET, NO. 1631 was filed on January 16, 2025. See the complete Bill at http://bit.ly/44qG7tN.
