The Children’s Grief Center of the Great Lakes Bay Region is happy to announce that their new location in Midland is now open and ready for groups. The Children’s Grief Center is for children and teens who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling, close family member or friend. We understand that each grief journey is unique, but there is comfort in the company of others who have had a similar experience. Our peer support groups use art, games, and high energy activities to create a healing environment to grieve. We work with children ages 5 to 18 in age specific groups. We meet throughout the school year. Each child has the opportunity to share, support and be supported as they learn to move through their grief in a healthy way. A concurrent family group is on site for adult family members. The Children’s Grief Center offers its services at no charge to all children and families. We rely on the generosity of individuals, foundations, businesses, and organizations in the surrounding communities for ongoing support of our programs. Volunteer opportunities and group sign-up information can be found at www.childrensgriefglbr.org or by contacting the office at 989-495-9335.
