The intention of this program will be to offer a space for those directly affected by the 2019 Gilroy Garlic Festival shooting, to come together for guided walks that will build connections and foster healing and well-being. A trauma-trained therapist will be present for all walks and provide an opportunity for debriefing and psychoeducation. This group is now open to the public .
