The Bend Buddies™ were created by Bend Health clinicians to serve as a fun, evidence-based way for families to develop a language surrounding core emotions and connect as a family.
Today, they are integral to the care families receive from Bend coaches, therapists, and psychiatrists and are used by pediatricians and mental health professionals across the country.
