Highbanks is named for its massive 100-foot-high shale bluff towering over the Olentangy State Scenic River. Tributary streams cutting across the bluff have created a number of deep ravines in the eastern part of the 1,200-acre park.

Dant Advocates, LLC is here to support (1) caregivers of children who have been sexually abused, (2) caregivers of children who have been accused of sexual abuse, and (3) caregivers who are looking for easier ways to have open and honest conversations with their children about relationships and sexuality.
Lauryn Dant is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (I.1440362-SUPV) specialized in child sexual development. Lauryn has spent over a decade providing therapy for children with sexually reactive and offending behaviors, and children who have survived sexual abuse. In Lauryn’s years working with children and adolescents Lauryn noticed the lack of resources available to caregivers.
Parents/Grandparents/Foster Parents/Family of Choice have come to Lauryn sharing feelings of confusion, embarrassment, shock, and fear. Lauryn believes that support and reassurance from a caregiver is monumental in a child’s healthy sexual development and healing. Caregivers have a right to guidance and support. Lauryn founded Dant Advocates, LLC as a means to bridge this gap.
