Everglades National Park, Florida

The Florida Everglades, The River of Grass, is enigmatic and mysterious. Four young women, all residents of Northwest Passage, ventured past the veil of mystery and discovered the beauty and diversity of life that lies within its borders. They explored the inland sloughs, cypress domes, and hammocks on foot; they traveled the tidal mangrove coastline by canoe. Traveling alongside local writers, artists, and National Park Service Rangers they were awed by the wonders of this one of a kind landscape. They formed a deep and meaningful connection to this critical and resilient environment all while continuing their own personal journeys of hope and healing.

"Surviving the Fall" by Lauryn, 17 | Everglades National Park

And just like with the leaves on
the last day of fall,
I was stepped on,
crunched up,
thrown away,
and tossed to the side.
People looked at me in a different way,
as my beauty quickly faded.
Unwanted, I realized that
I am still me, and I will never
change for others
wasted dead dreams.

About Lauryn: "My name is Lauryn. I came to Passage because I was having difficulty handling my emotions and also a hard time accepting myself. In the future, I hope to help others possibly through occupational or recreational therapy."
