The Camp will provide a safe, supportive and fun environment where grieving children and teens learn that they are not alone in their grief and are free to share their thoughts and feelings with peers who are going through a similar experience. This camp is intended to complement existing bereavement services for children and teens by providing a weekend of “caring and sharing”.
The camp is not designed to provide grief therapy, but will acknowledge the loss and grief, honor memories and have some fun too.
