A Gap in the Forest
"It was once believed that trees in a forest compete for sunlight. We now know this is not true. In fact, when a tree is struggling, others around it will open their canopy, allowing the sunlight in, creating space for healing and growth. This is called “A Gap in the Forest.”
​
This healing power extends itself to our mental health community, where people, place, and purpose meets creativity, empathy, and empowerment."
A Gap in the Forest is our 501-(c)(3) peer-run nonprofit offering a variety of creative, social, and recreational groups, hosted by and for individuals living with mental health conditions. AGITF provides a platform for artists to collaborate & showcase their work, space to explore creativity & empowerment, and immersive communities centered around empathy, support and positive mental health.
