The Center for ReUniting Families is a nonprofit educational organization.We believe that people the world over want to make a meaningful contribution to the well-being of others and that we thrive in connection with one another. For more than 25 years we’ve been committed to helping people and organizations make these connections, integrate personal growth and social change, and move beyond the way it is toward the way it can be.
Children & Families
From 1994 to 2004, CRF owned and operated Alpine Meadows Camp and served well over 20,000 youth a year, providing a place for them to find belonging, to feel safe, to be nourished, and to learn how to create community. In 2004 the camp was sold and the Board began the search for a property that could provide a more intimate and accessible learning environment for families, groups and community organizations to explore the extraordinary potential that exists in us all.
In 2007, CRF purchased Dancing Deer in Templeton, CA.
Nature
Interdependence is at the foundation of CRF’s world view. We believe that the well-being of each of us is deeply connected to the well-being of all living things, including the beautiful wild animals on our land. Connection with the land is fostered through hiking trails on our 50 acres of rolling hills and multiple sitting areas for quiet contemplation.
Mission
The Center for ReUniting Families offers resources and support in order to inspire people to make positive choices with regards to their own health, their relationships, their skills as parents and partners and their overall practices for living and being in community. We believe human beings thrive in connection with one another and with nature.
People
We’re proud of our hard-working staff and the dedicated volunteer board that is helping drive The Center for Reuniting Families into the future. The founders of the organization continue an active role.
