Our Impact & Initiatives
The Healing Journeys Foundation is committed to advancing healing, equity, and collective care through five core initiatives that reflect our values and long-term vision:
Healing Access Through Scholarships
The Healing Journeys Foundation will provide scholarships for individuals and families on healing journeys who may lack access to holistic healing opportunities. These scholarships support participation in our immersive retreats, including:
Healing Journeys Writing to Heal Retreat
Healing Journeys Yoga, Culture, and Sustainable Food Retreat
Healing Journeys Relational Savoring Caregiver Retreat
These experiences are designed to create space for reflection, restoration, and meaningful connection.
Holistic Healing
The Jeffrey Jaeger Fellowship in Clinical Psychology was established by clinical psychology alumna Dr. Briana Woods-Jaeger in honor of her late husband, and clinical psychology alumnus Dr. Jeffrey A. Jaeger, who passed away at the age of 41 after a long and heroic battle with cancer. This gift supports the learning and growth of clinical psychology graduate students as clinician scientists who aim to improve the lives of others as Jeff did and continues to do through his lasting legacy.
During the last year of his life, Jeff continued to live life with joy, love, and deep generosity even when experiencing major physical challenges due to his numerous intensive cancer treatments. He maintained seeing his clients until he could no longer muster the breath needed for full sessions and treated everyone with kindness, even when in immense pain.
