This children’s grief support day camp will provide a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for children experiencing grief, to foster emotional processing, healthy coping mechanisms, and a renewed sense of connection through a combination of equestrian services and age-appropriate grief support activities.
This two-day camp will combine a unique blend of therapeutic interventions. Equine Assisted Services provides a non-judgmental space for emotional expression and connection with horses, known for their sensitivity to human emotions. Structured grief support activities will help children understand their emotions, share their experiences, and develop coping skills.
