Formation of the Global Healing Response

The Global Healing Response (GHR) was introduced to a network of worldwide labyrinth facilitators on August 9, 2005 by Ellen Bintz Meuch, Certified Labyrinth Facilitator.  

It is a Veriditas (www.veriditas.net) sponsored program. The GHR is a simple plan using the labyrinth in a unified response to promote stress management, grief integration and healing in case of an emergency or disaster from any force. 

The intent was to create a plan with clarity and vision before a disaster occurs rather than when everyone is distressed.  The GHR was first implemented in response to Hurricane Katrina on October 15, 2005.
