Welcome to Mourning Hope

Mourning Hope is a grief support network for children, teens, young adults and their families who have experience the serious illness or death of someone special to them. Support groups serve youth in kindergarten through college age and their families. Mourning Hope is here to help when grieving the death of anyone significant in a child's life -- a parent, grandparent, sibling, aunt or uncle, close friend or neighbor.

Mourning Hope was founded in 1994 and is dedicated to providing emotional support for grieving youth and helping caregivers and the community at large understand the unique needs of grieving youth and families. Mourning Hope is funded by the generosity of our community and does not require payment for any services.

Mourning Hope's name is significant - - it through healthy mourning that we can find hope again. Grieving is the hardest work there is, and it is as universal as love.
