What makes The Collective for Hope’s programs different?
- FREE grief support services following a significant death loss
- Developmentally appropriate curriculum for children ages 3-18, young adults, and adults
- Peer support format (NOT therapy/counseling)
- Interpretation and other accommodations provided upon request
- Commitment to diversity & inclusion
- Groups are facilitated by trained volunteers (20+ hours) and room helpers
- No hierarchy of grief/No grief comparisons
- We walk alongside. We do not try to “fix”
- We also train facilitators to take the work into their own communities because we understand we are not a one-size-fits-all
- Our entire staff has a loss story (or several) of their own. We truly get it and do this work because we don’t want anyone to have to go through it alone.
Children and Family Programs
Peer support focused on creating a space for “kids to be kids” through a variety of methods including: play, music, art, picture books, and reflective sharing.
Pre-Teen, Teen, & Adult Programs
Each group/special event has been designed to break down isolation and stigma, and equip individuals and families with healthy coping strategies and enhanced communication skills.
Pregnancy and Infant Loss Programs
The mission of HEALing Embrace Pregnancy & Infant Loss programming is to provide hope, healing, and support for individuals and families navigating pregnancy and infant loss (up to age 1) through support groups, weighted bear program, HEALs to the Pavement Remembrance Day, International Wave of Light Ceremonies, and other special offerings.
