rainbows banner rainbow word is an international nonprofit organization that offers training and curricula for establishing peer support groups for schools, churches, hospitals, synagogues, or social service agencies. The curricula are designed to assist children, adolescents, and adults who are grieving a death, divorce, or any other painful transition in their families.

Plano has trained facilitators who have conducted this program for the past 16 years. Locally the program was known as My Guardian Angel. Please pass this information to those who would benefit from small group support.

We are now conducting our winter/spring program. Cost for the program is $25 per family, which includes books and materials. The cost may be waived in event of hardship.
