Elijah’s Place provides ongoing grief support to children ages 5 – 18 who have experienced the death of a parent, caregiver, or sibling. The program also offers childhood bereavement education for adults working in schools, churches, and community organizations. All support sessions are led by trained group facilitators who are supervised by a licensed professional. During the session, children get to participate in a variety of activities including arts and crafts, games, and discussion to help them express their feelings. Elijah’s Place grief support provides a setting for age-appropriate peer support sessions for the children (ages 5-7, 8-10, 11-13, and 14-18). Families come to Elijah’s Place two evenings each month. Participation in the program lasts until the family decides they no longer require the services. Support groups are also available in alternate locations upon request. Elijah’s Place is not counseling or therapy, nor is it intended to take the place of counseling. Support groups are led by trained volunteers, supervised by a professional counselor.
