Hospice Care's Camp Nabe received yet more coverage this past week, with WBOY12 News spreading word of the free bereavement camp. A quote:
About 40 kids 7-17 years old attended Camp Nabe in Preston County for an bereavement camp this weekend. All-weekend long, the kids learned how to cope with a death of a loved one through various activities, all for free.
Kids released balloons with special messages written for their loved ones.
"Kids grieve differently, we as adults we know how to grieve, we think we know to grieve. But kids don't how to to deal with the grief, their anger and emotions," Chris Garbart of the Hospice Care Corporation said. "So that's what this camp is about to help kids get through the grief process."
This hugely beneficial camp offers children who have experienced the loss of a loved one a chance to learn to grieve and share in the company of their peers. For more information regarding Camp Nabe, visit the Hospice Care website or call 304-864-0884.
