What is your history/story/connection to Brooke's Place? 

My coworker referred me to Brooke’s Place because her son had lost his father. We had our initial visit, and after that, we just felt so comfortable with the staff and felt welcome. Since our initial visit, we have felt like Brooke’s Place has our back. What’s special about Brooke’s Place is that you never feel alone and it’s so many people who are going through the same things that you’re going through and the gentleness of Brooke’s Place makes you just feel like a family. When we lost our loved one, my daughter and I thought we were alone, but we were very surprised that we wasn’t alone. 

We really appreciate the staff and all the programs, the counseling, camp, etc. that Brooke’s Place have in place for families. It makes it easy especially for small children.
