Our Impact
Families
“The last year we have attended almost every Family Friday, and everyone is so kind, understanding and nonjudgmental of me and my kids. We feel at home.”
"I especially noticed a change in my 9-year-old son coming out of camp wanting to talk about his dad and share his feelings.”
"Loss is a part of life and New Hope has helped me see the positive growth that can come from healing together."
What past participants have to say...

loved and helped me so much in my grief. You probably saved my life."
