Day Camp
Day Camp is an opportunity for grieving youth ages 7-17 to be with friends their age who have also experienced the death of someone close to them. Connecting with others with shared experiences helps us know that we are not alone in our grief.
Brooke’s Place Day Camp is Saturday, October 11
