Our vision is to create a healing garden which gives members of the community an urban greenspace to heal from violent events in their lives. For some that may mean quiet reflection or brushing their hands across scent-filled plants, others are welcome to volunteer in the garden and get their hands dirty. 

In addition to being a welcoming garden for the public, Eli’s Garden of Healing plans to produce and support a range of violence healing and reduction programming. We welcome the opportunity to partner and engage with other local community groups and nonprofits.
