Storylines reflect the gentle tone and magical elements of the main Healing Tree tale, but will be effective as standalone narratives. Employing the dramatic beats in Joseph Campbell’s “The Hero’s Journey,” storylines describe to children the difficulties they may encounter on their own healing journey at COANIQUEM, but offer empowering messages of hope and resiliency.
Since its inception in 1979 by Dr. Jorge Rojas-Zegers, COANIQUEM has cared for more than 100,000 children suffering from devastating and life-altering burn injuries. Because of partnerships and international support, COANIQUEM can offer their services at no cost to families, many who live in underserved communities and in poverty.
