Mount Evans Home Health Care & Hospice has announced dates for its two 2020 Camp Comfort sessions:
June 12-14, 2020 and July 24-26, 2020
This award-winning bereavement camp, located in the Rocky Mountains just west of Denver, is a way for children ages 6 to 12 to explore their feelings of grief and share memories of their loved ones. More than 1,500 children have attended Camp Comfort since its establishment in 1995.
During this extraordinary weekend led by trained counselors and bereavement professionals, children learn ways to cope with their grief through workshops. A volunteer “buddy” system (with no more than two children to one adult) ensures that children receive plenty of personal, one-on-one attention. And, while children are encouraged to share memories and express their grief, Camp Comfort offers fun, too. The daily itinerary includes plenty of opportunities for recreation including swimming, horseback riding, arts and crafts, fishing, and hiking.
The total cost to attend Camp Comfort, including all workshops, recreation, meals, snacks, and overnight accommodations, is $175. Scholarships are available based on financial need. For more information or to receive a brochure in the mail, call Mount Evans at 303-674-6400.
