We are a community based nonprofit that specializes in individualized patient care. Our service area is intentionally small to allow for quick response to patients. Ours is the only summer camp that focuses on grief and loss for the entire family, not just the children.

We have one location at this time. And will be opening a 6-bedroom hospice house late summer 2013.
