More About Camp Caterpillar
Campers will learn that they are not alone in their feelings of grief or their anxiety about the ways their lives have changed. Children will be taught that the process of grieving is not forgetting their loved one but remembering with less pain. Campers learn to express the feelings, improve communication, and learn coping skills to deal with current and future losses.
Camp Caterpillar will be held via Zoom for 2020. All activities are led by Hospice of San Joaquin grief staff as well as grief volunteers.
