We offer help for grieving kids, teens, families and adults.

Even though the grieving process is unique, they find peace in knowing they are not alone. We assist families in building a framework for healing through education and understanding.

Campers have many opportunities to express their feelings and thoughts, as well as honor and celebrate their loved one. Experiences at camp help build a lifelong foundation for healthy mourning of the losses that inevitably come in life. Loss affects us all, but with special care, children especially can manage loss and move forward with healthy, happy lives.
