ABOUT OUR PRICING:

At our core, we believe nature's healing embrace should be accessible to everyone, regardless of financial background. That's why we designed this program to be as affordable as possible and offer reduced registration fees if we succeed in securing sponsorships. We offer the option of reduced registration fee because financial challenges might exist for specific individuals which could include but not limited to the following reasons:

• Significant debt, medical expenses, or living month-to-month;
• Facing barriers or discrimination in hiring, immigration-related expenses, or caring for dependents;
• Being an elder, community organizer, returning citizen, or belonging to communities historically marginalized and excluded.

We deeply respect your individual journey and want to be transparent about our pricing.

Part of our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion involves paying our retreat team a reasonable stipend, as many of us are working professionals in the holistic & outdoor-related field who would be giving up income to support this retreat. #SupportDeafEcosystem​
