Support Groups For Youth
Guiding Young Hearts
The TREK Program for Healing Young Hearts
Our TREK program offers a caring embrace to grieving children and teens (ages 5 to 18). Here, they find understanding and guidance to navigate their grief, alongside peers who share similar feelings and experiences. As they journey together, genuine friendships and bonds emerge, often lasting well beyond the duration of the program.
TREK
Elemenatry
Guiding young children through the complexities of loss and grief.
Using stories, art, and play as therapeutic tools to help kids express and process their emotions.
Dedicated volunteer facilitators create a nurturing space where every child feels safe to share and heal.
TREK
Middle School
Middle school is a time of significant change. We connect peers with similar experiences and emotions.
Through art, games, and activities, we offer gentle pathways for tweens to express themselves.
In this supportive environment, they can explore emotions alongside their peers.
TREK
High School
High schoolers are no longer children, but they are not yet adults either. We connect similarly grieving peers.
Facilitated conversations and thought-provoking exercises help teens relate to each other.
In this supportive environment, they can form new friendships with those who are also grieving someone they love.
TREK
Caregivers
Just as you are told by flight attendants to put your oxygen mask on before helping your child, bereaved caregivers must face their own grief in order to effectively help with their grief journey.
We guide caregivers over eight weeks, aligning with youth topics, to understand grief’s family impact and regain post-loss balance.
