Children Overcoming Painful Experiences with Support
C.O.P.E.S. offers a safe and comforting space for kids who have experienced grief, loss, or trauma. Here, they can talk, process their emotions, and receive the support they need to heal. It’s a place grounded in honesty and genuine encouragement as they begin a new chapter.
Parents are not obligated to stay but are always welcome to do so. Children are fed breakfast and lunch. We host events on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month.
*Participants receive a special coping toolkit, including a journal, an emotion-processing guide, and unique tools (like a Rubik's cube) to help them navigate triggers and sadness.
