How Does A Grieving Child Benefit From An Experience Like Good Grief Camp?
The feelings that accompany grief can be intense and overwhelming. Good Grief Camp shows children that what they are experiencing, although painful, is perfectly normal.
Being a grieving child can be a lonely experience. Often a child feels they are the only one who has experienced a significant loss. At a time in their life when it feels important to fit in, grief can make them feel lost and isolated. Good Grief Camp allows a grieving child to be with other children who share these feelings. It can be a relief to them to know that they are not alone.
Children often feel they do not have an avenue to express their grief or to honor and remember the person they hold dear. Here they have the opportunity to feel safe getting their feeling out while memorializing their loved one through a variety of fun therapeutic activities.
