All services are free and an at-cost meal is served each program night. Hands on activities including crafts, art materials, games and other grieving aids provide supportive tools during group time.

Brooke's Place is a wonderful organization comprised of compassionate, genuine individuals. It exists to provide support for grieving children and their families. It's a great, safe place for the people it serves.
It's also an amazing place to volunteer. They are so appreciative and supportive of their volunteers. As a volunteer, you are well-trained and never left without assistance. The environment is laid-back, but everything runs smoothly because of the competence of staff and long-time volunteers. I highly recommend Brooke's Place to anyone who's interested. You'll be welcomed with open arms!

Brooks Place provides a safe, supporting place where young people can share with others who have had similar losses. Grief support is amazing and I've seen kids open up and bloom again after their experiences with this organization. I highly recommend them.
