Welcome new members! If any of you are students and are in need of a simple project, the TLN is looking for someone to document how many of the 155 teaching hospitals in the U.S. have therapeutic landscapes or some other type of restorative outdoor space. Anyone interested? Could become a great thesis…

Great, Devin! Be sure to share your findings with us, and I will post anything new to the Therapeutic Landscapes Database.

Stumbled on to your database blog while researching healing gardens. Currently designing two for an outpatient clinic in Miami. Thanks so much for all the info you’ve posted.

Strut your stuff! Two opportunities with ASLA: http://tldb.blogspot.com/. Will announce the call for student awards when it comes around, too.

Scholarship opportunity for landscape architecture grad students wanting to conduct research. See more on the Therapeutic Landscapes Database Blog: http://tldb.blogspot.com/ and spread the word – deadline is soon!

You’re welcome, Rico! Let me know how it goes – always looking for more examples of therapeutic landscapes to add to the database (http://www.healinglandscapes.org/sites.html).

It will Naomi, thanks. I’m sure will help. Hoping I could do one in the future for my son who has DS, and maybe for the school he is in right now.

God bless you!
