As someone who is still learning how to process grief, even in my 40s, it can be so tough and overwhelming. So I can’t even imagine how difficult it is for children and young adults who experience loss. That is why I’m so thankful for organizations like @ComfortZoneCamp.

Grief sucks — especially in those moments when you weren’t expecting it and it shows up anyway. But it also keeps us connected to our loved ones who’ve already passed.

Tell us: How do you stay connected and honor the memory of your loved one(s)?

We had to adapt our services for grieving children during COVID and that was when we first introduced 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽𝘀!

Today, we have two annual weekend programs where parents like Nick are able to share their grief journey with other parents.

Being part of a "grief bubble" may be what a struggling child needs. https://t.co/LEtGdpVBT9

After experiencing a loss, many don’t feel like they can share their grief and story in most settings. Do 𝘺𝘰𝘶 feel comfortable talking about your grief?

We see a familiar face! Congratulations to our founder and CEO, @LynneBHughes, for being honored.

📍 “Children’s grief camp” often conjures images of constant sadness. The reality? It’s much more.

🫶 Our mission? To give kids a chance to be kids again

🛣️ At camp, children discover that grief is a journey and we’re here to support them every step of the way.

An amazing camp with @NFFF_News 👏

❤️ It was filled with powerful moments, providing children with opportunities to process their grief.

❤️ With NFFF, we’re making a meaningful difference in the lives of these resilient young campers by helping them along their journey.

[National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF) @NFFF_News]

Campers are headed to a special weekend-long @ComfortZoneCamp that gives kids a safe space to share with peers who have suffered a similar loss. Open to kids/siblings whose firefighter parent/sibling has been honored, or approved to be honored, at Fallen FF’s Memorial. #firehero

[Comfort Zone Camp @ComfortZoneCamp]

We’re grateful for our long-standing collaboration with NFFF, an organization dedicated to honoring America’s fallen firefighters. They preserve the legacy of these heroes by sharing their stories and highlighting their impact on families, communities, and our nation.
