I am joined by our group of certified White Bison facilitators that have been running the Medicine Wheel & The 12 Steps since November of last year. Marilyn, Michelle, Darcy, and Heather speak about how this program has impacted their lives and why they think this process is important. Starting in February they will be providing White Bison's, Mending Broken Hearts in the Calgary area.
