Brooke’s Place provides peer support groups for young people ages 3 - 29, who have experienced the death of a significant person in their life. Our volunteer support group facilitators provide a safe and supportive environment for young people to grieve the way they need to grieve. They listen to and validate the feelings, thoughts, and words that are shared during support groups and let the participants lead their grief journey. (No counseling background is required, just a love for kids!)
