When a family member or close friend dies, it is a frightening disruption in the lives of both children and adults. Death changes the way the entire family functions. Sometimes our children become “the forgotten mourners.”
The Caring House provides a safe place for children ages 3-18 and their families to cope with the death of a loved one and share their grief with others. We recognize that grief is a natural reaction to the loss of a loved one. The duration and intensity of grief is unique for each individual. Within each of us is the natural capacity to heal, and acceptance and caring facilitate that healing process.
At The Caring House, we provide many outlets for children to express and process their grief, including:
To request a telephone consultation for The Caring House program, please call (256) 650-1212. After a brief telephone interview, we will arrange a tour and orientation visit where dates and times for participation in the program will be determined.
Caring for Life is a not-for-profit organization, and services of The Caring House are available free of charge. We are dependent on Huntsville Hospital Foundation support, corporate and community contributions, as well as donations from churches and families who have benefited from our services. All residents of Madison County are eligible for our services, regardless of whether their loved one was served by our hospice agency. If you would like to make a contribution to Caring for Life, Hospice Family Care or The Caring House, please call our office at (256) 650-1212. All gifts to Caring for Life are tax deductible and very much appreciated.
