Imagine A Center For Coping With Loss

Imagine knows that not everyone who is grieving will be in a peer grief support program at our center, but they will need the support of their peers. Imagine provides grief education and grief training to individuals, organizations and schools looking to better serve the needs of those in their community who are grieving. During the 23 - 24 year, imagine trained over 3,000 individuals to better support those in their lives who are grieving. These trainings are fully immersive experiences that help participants to explore their own grief and how to support others who are grieving.

Imagine created a 3 day grief support retreat for widow and widowers who became only parents and are raising children by themselves. This three day retreat provided healing for adults both mentally, physically and emotionally. This retreat allows caregivers the space to put on their own oxygen mask, to develop coping skills and build networks with other widows that will support them in their every day lives when they return.

Imagine families are uniquely challenged in the space that as sole caregivers of children, the summer can be a very challenging time. Imagine is purposeful about developing relationships with both grief camps and traditional day camps that receive imagine's training to ensure that imagine families have safe supportive experiences and options for children throughout the summer months, when school is out and less consistency exists. Imagine staff spends time communicating with these partners and works to ensure that all camp options for imagine participants are free of charge.
