Healing House Volunteer Training Begins in June

Healing House Hope for Grieving Children needs volunteers to help grieving children and teens who have experienced the death of a parent or sibling. Interested volunteers must be 21 years old, available two evenings a  month, and be able to attend the scheduled training series.

Healing House Hope for Grieving Children provides grief support groups for children in an atmosphere which allows them to express their grief though interactive play, expressive art work and discussion groups with peers experiencing the same trauma.  All services provided by Healing House are free of charge and facilitated by trained volunteers.

Volunteers serve as support group facilitators for children ages 4-18, and are instructed how to listen and respond appropriately to a grieving child.  A background or experience in mental health or counseling is NOT required.   One training series will be held this summer. Volunteers are required to attend each day of the training series.
