Come See How Connection Begins
For a grieving child, meeting someone who understands can make it easier to talk about feelings, remember their person and feel less alone. At Valerie’s House, peer grief support groups give children and families opportunities to build those connections, at no cost to families.
Whether you work with children, know a family who needs support, want to volunteer or are simply curious about Valerie’s House, we’d love to meet you. Take a tour, ask questions and learn how you can help us work toward our vision: No child will grieve alone.
