Narrative
Facilitates healthy coping with loss for children, teens, and their families. We can help them feel connected with each other and less alone in their grief journey.
After School Groups
Our Kid’s Club and Kid’s Crew are specifically designed to meet the needs of our younger grievers, ages 3-10. These groups run twice monthly, in the afternoon starting at 4:15pm. We use art, books, and play to explore and express feelings. While children are meeting, caregivers also meet in their own support group.
Evening Programs
Jeff’s Place offers evening support groups, twice monthly, for children and teens ages 7-18 and their caregivers who have experienced a meaningful death loss. Group nights start at 6:30pm and run about 2 hours. Each group is run by a clinician and a grief-informed volunteer.
