Camp Carousel
Summer camps provide opportunities to grow in body, mind, and spirit, and our Camp Carousel is a good opportunity for just that. If your child or teen has experienced a loss, Camp Carousel may be the perfect camp. This camp weaves together some of the fun you would expect from a summer camp with expert counseling and support that is specifically designed to help nurture and heal hearts and minds impacted by the death of a loved one.
It's important for children and teens to have opportunities to tell their stories and receive support.
Grief is a natural response to loss, and it is especially important for children and teens to have opportunities to tell their stories and receive support. Campers learn coping skills that can help them thrive well into adulthood.
Campers will develop skills for healthy coping, find support with peers of their own age, and explore ideas for expression and remembering. We know that fun, creative, meaningful activities, as well as the chance to tell stories, can foster connection and deepen the healing process.
Camp Carousel also offers a day retreat for adults who are grieving the death of a loved one. This retreat includes rituals for remembering, mindfulness practices, and expression through the arts.
Trellis Supportive Care offers this camp for the community at no charge to participants.
