Hochoka Retreat Center offers a place of education and respite for wellness, stress management, trauma recovery and other life changing programs. We have been operating with our lead program healingwithhorses for over 20 years. It is not a horse riding program. One does not even have to be near a horse for the transformation to occur. We have new goals for the farm to include a tiny house living model project; to help people learn how to have a home, live simply, without a huge tethered to mortgage. Another new aspect of our farm is to develop with our curriculum based programs, an outdoor school. We also would like to begin again to facilitate our programs as elective course work to be utilized within Universities within the master's programs for those studying to be therapist or social workers. We want to market home school associations and other alternative learning models for marketing our outdoor learning modules. We also want to place our curriculum onto our website.

Marketing - Newsletter Creation & Social Media
Hochoka Retreat Center needs interns to work with us on our flyers we want to post each month in 3 areas (3 flyers) = 1) Breathwork 2) Retreat Farm Day 3) Volunteer Day. These will go out to sections within our database = such as; the Breathwork and Retreat Farm Day will go to all clients, volunteers, associates who work with children, yoga, adult clients. Our database is divided up into various categories. We will work with you on which ones, per the particular flyer. We are also developing a newsletter to go out quarterly - to everyone in the database. We are also developing a letter to go out to Universities which offer PhD and Masters programs for therapy. Also Universities who offer horse degree curriculum. We are requesting to have our curriculum based horse healing program to be offered on farm location, as an elective for students; and for internships so that they can learn a new cutting edge type of therapy. We can also come to the University and teach in class room; however we prefer live, real time at the farm. Lenoir Rhyne, Gardner Webb, Clemson, etc.
