Providing Care, Connection and Community

For almost 25 years, Children’s Grief Connection has provided care, connection, and community to almost one thousand families grieving the death of a loved one. Our organization recognizes grief as a universal human process and that all who mourn benefit and learn from being invited into a caring community. Our bereavement camp, Hearts of Hope Family Grief Camp, welcomes all families, without regard to family composition, race, or creed.

As an organization, Children’s Grief Connection aims to maintain and expand the diverse community that is created during our camps through ongoing grief education and online support groups. At a time when our society is fraught with division, we continue to work for healing through these most basic human needs: care, connection, and community.
