MISSION

To provide a community inspired by Nature that provides out-of-the ordinary experiences that foster the awakening of the mind, and maximize the child’s development – emotionally, physically, cognitively, and socially in service to the highest good of all life.

VISION

Working collaboratively within a multigenerational, integrated and nurturing community, Another Way provides Nature-based experiences to awaken the mind to the kinship of all life. Staff, children, teens, parents and community members come to see how we are all the same with the choice to
​see separately in conflict, or, to see the spiritual oneness of all life regardless of form.
The world is seen as a classroom with love as the guiding Master-Teacher.

CORE  VALUES  

All life is sacred.
We are all related.
  We respect and love Self, Others and the Earth.
 

Silent Connections

Mountains,
Oceans,
Whales,
Wolves,
Children,
LIFE,
the connections, wordless, are there.

Impressions, insights, intuition, 
a kind of knowing beyond cultural knowledge 
that words cannot express without distortion
IS.

The importance of things as teachers, not as possessions,
the earth nourishing and fostering
AWARENESS,
AWAKENING,
LOVE.

The child knows.

The spiritual SOURCE,
the life force underlying the fabric of matter pulses, 
SILENT,
ETERNAL,
NOW.
