Getting Started
Taking flight
An invitation to The Haven
Welcome, Rising Angel. You are in charge of your journey, and you decide which path to take. Here are the four ways you can begin your ascent. There is no right or wrong place to start. Every path leads to the same horizon: healing, community, and your wings. Choose what feels right for you today.
1
Path 1 · Quarterly Connection
The Gathering
A quarterly community celebration open to everyone: Rising Angels, Allied Angels, supporters, and friends. Our location and activity vary each quarter and are announced on our Events page, so check there before you head out!
This is our time to come together and celebrate every Feather earned, every Spark Charm collected, and every Wing Patch achieved. No agenda, no pressure, just community showing up to honor how far we have all come together. Whether you are just starting your journey or celebrating a major milestone, every step of your Flight Path is worth celebrating out loud.
Why start here?
It’s the perfect “no-strings-attached” way to meet the community, cheer each other on, and realize you are not alone.
Path 2 · Weekly Healing
The Flight Club
Our core healing circle, meeting every week. This is where we use our research-based “Flight Path” curriculum. Each month the group focuses on one Wing together, working through weekly lessons and psychoeducation to quiet the “trauma alarm” in the brain.
Feathers
Daily, for the small wins.
Spark Charms
Weekly, for the goals you meet.
Wing Patches
Earned once a Wing is complete.
Alongside this rhythm, each Rising Angel works toward earning their 12 Wings

Most recommended first step
Path 3 · One-on-One Mentorship
The Allied Angel
Personal guidance from a peer mentor, an Ally, who has successfully navigated their own journey from surviving to thriving.
Your Allied Angel acts as your “Co-Pilot.” They provide a safe, one-on-one space to check in, help you navigate the 12 Wings of the curriculum, and offer authentic empathy based on lived experience.
Why start here?
Having a dedicated person to talk to makes the rest of the program feel much more accessible and safe.
Path 4 · Advocacy & Impact
Every Voice a Catalyst
An opportunity to move your story from the “shadows” into the light to create systemic change in Casper and to stop feeding abuse. Your story is a tool. By sharing your Flight Path, you provide hope to other survivors and highlight where our community systems can change.
Cinematic Interviews
Tell your story on camera, in your own words.
Recorded Conversations
A guided conversation, recorded so others can hear it.
Anonymous Testimonials
Write it down and share it without your name attached.
Abuse lives in the dark. You don’t have to share before you’re ready, but when you are, your voice changes everything.
