Those dealing with the loss of a loved one are welcome to participate in the bereavement program the Hospice of the Calumet Area offers. Their mission is to provide support during these difficult times.

Aptly named “Healing Hearts,” the program provides helpful information, practical support, and a friendly, comfortable environment where individuals can share their struggles and triumphs. They have specialized programs for children and teens, as well.

Healing Hearts for Kids focuses on helping children from ages 6 to 12. This provides an opportunity for children to share common grief experience and learn more about the bereavement process.

The organization shares that thousands of teenagers deal with the loss of a loved one every year and when their dearly departed helped shape their lives in some way, such a loss leaves a mark in their lives. Through the bereavement program specialized for teens, they teach the joy and pain that comes with emotional attachment.

Healing Hearts also provides telephone support, monthly mailing, and referrals to community services.
