    Made possible by charitable support, Camp Erin®, Snohomish County is a free grief camp for children and teens who have experienced the loss of a loved one. Led by bereavement professionals and caring volunteers, young campers attend a weekend-long overnight camp at Camp Killoqua in Stanwood, WA. Camp Erin® provides a safe and nurturing environment for children and teens to explore their grief, learn essential coping skills, and make friends with peers who are also grieving.

    Grief Support Services offers one-on-one and group grief counseling services for adults, teens, and children. In addition, seasonal events and opportunities are offered to grieving families to come together as a community in remembrance of a loved one who has passed away. All our grief support services are offered at no charge, thanks to philanthropic support.
