We are busy getting ready for our Adult Retreat this weekend. The Bereavement Center is teaming up with Common Ground in Lorain County which is where this event will be held. The retreat provides the opportunity for adults to share with other adults who are grieving. Art therapy, nature and times for reflection and support will be the activities for day.
The Chronicle-Telegram – Elyria, OH provided some press for this retreat...
For one day, grief doesn’t have to be such a lonely journey. Adults who have experienced the loss of a loved one can feel the healing embrace of Camp Healing Hearts, the first grief camp in Lorain County.http://chronicle.northcoastnow.com/2009/06/08/unique-camp-to-help-grief-stricken/

Greetings!
Summer is around the corner and we are busy getting ready for camps, classes and summer events.
Together We Can, our 3-day bereavement day camp for children, ages 6-12 who have experienced the death of a loved one, will be held at Red Oak Camp in Kirtland, OH http://208.206.15.235/uploads/pdf/TWCCamp09_Flyer_BLUE.pdf
This will be our eleventh year of having approximately 40 campers sharing laughter and tears as they remember and honor their loved one that died.
On July 14th, from 1:00-4:15, we will be offering a 3-hour CE course on Children and Adolescent Grief. This popular course is usually offered during the winter and spring, but we wanted to offer it a time that would be most helpful to teachers. Here is the synopsis:
The grief reactions of children and adolescents can seem complex to many adults. This class will review the specific developmental grief reactions of children and teens. A review of appropriate literature and helpful interventions is included. Finally, participants will apply this knowledge through experiential activities and interactive discussion of film clips.
