Other Residential Healing Programs

The following list identifies other Residential Healing Programs serving people whose lives have been touched by cancer. They are not-for-profit organizations that have been inspired by Commonweal's work and have developed quality programs of their own. Commonweal has offered varying degrees of consultation and training to these organizations. Even though we support their work, thoughtful inquiry should be used to insure that a particular program meets your needs. The Smith Farm Center for the Healing Arts has the most direct connection to Commonweal. Michael Lerner, president of Commonweal, is co-founder and president of Smith Farm. The administration office for Smith Farm is in Washington, DC and their retreat site is in Maryland, making participation more convenient for east coast residents. The wait time for programs tends to be shorter at Smith Farm and the other residential programs.
