Wilderness Heals is an all-female, three-day pledge hike to raise funds for the Elizabeth Stone House. The hike brings together women from all over New England to raise awareness about domestic violence and trauma, and also raises the much-needed flexible funding that helps the Stone House meet the needs of the families it serves. Each hiker is responsible for raising a minimum of $1,200, which goes directly to supporting the work of the Elizabeth Stone House.

The Elizabeth Stone House believes that by helping one another, women can overcome obstacles that may seem insurmountable to each one individually. Peer support is one of the most effective ways to make and maintain changes in individuals, families, and communities and both Wilderness Heals and the Elizabeth Stone House are founded on this principle.
