Community programs through Hendrick Hospice Care.
Camp Courage is a three-day, two-night camp for children entering the third through 12thgrade who have suffered the loss of a loved one through death, divorce, separation, incarceration or deployment. Children participate in recreational activities that promote self-esteem, encourage self-healing, and provide an outlet for unexpressed emotions.
The camp offers a supportive environment and encourages trust, self-confidence and an understanding of the grief process. In addition, with the help of specially trained counselors, campers develop healthy coping skills as a result of the variety of grief exercises offered, which ultimately help build self-confidence, trust, and an understanding of the grief process.
