The Children’s Treehouse Foundation provides psychosocial intervention through its CLIMB program (Children’s Lives Include Moments of Bravery). The CLIMB program is offered for children affected by a parent’s cancer in hospitals and cancer centers throughout the United States. The standardized program, delivered by trained mental health professionals, helps children understand and cope with their parents’ illness and helps parents communicate with their children.
Camp Erin, created and funded by The Moyer Foundation, is the largest nationwide network of free bereavement camps for children and teens ages 6- 17 who have experienced the death of someone close to them. Led by grief professionals and trained volunteers, Camp Erin combines traditional, fun camp activities with grief education and emotional support providing a unique opportunity for youth to increase levels of hope, enhance self-esteem, and especially to learn that they are not alone.
Experience Camps are free, one-week camps in Maine, New York and California for boys and girls who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling or primary caregiver. Through camp activities and facilitated bereavement support, campers are able to open up, share their stories, and be with other kids who “get it”, while having the time of their lives just being kids.
