Hunterdon Hospice Will Offer Youth Art Bereavement Support Group
July 5, 2023
Hunterdon Hospice is pleased to announce the relaunch of our Youth Art Bereavement Program. The program is open to all children and teens (K through 12th grade) who have experienced the loss of a loved one. The Youth Art Bereavement Program will use art as a medium to explore and express grief.
All participants will be placed in age-appropriate peer groups to help foster friendship and support. The curriculum, tailored to the specific developmental needs of each group, will be facilitated by professional counselors and trained volunteers. Parents/guardians can participate in a companion group for education and support.
The program will now be offered twice a year. The first session will meet Wednesday evenings, September 20th - November 8th - 6:30 pm to 7:45 pm at The Senior Center, 4 Gauntt Place, Building 1, Route 31 S, Flemington, NJ. The second session will be offered in early 2024.
There is no cost for families to attend this program thanks to grants and donations from members of our community who support Hunterdon Hospice’s commitment to bereavement services.
