Description

The Dougy Center provides grief support in a safe place where children, teens, young adults, and their families can share their experiences before and after a death. Dougy Center’s programs are based on their peer support group model for bereavement, including their program for after a death, Esperanza, Pathways, and L.Y.G.H.T. All Dougy Center programs offer support to families at no cost. Groups meet every other week and are led by master’s-level Group Coordinators and supported by Volunteer Group Facilitators. Esperanza offers support in Spanish. Pathways focuses on living with an advanced serious illness. L.Y.G.H.T. (pronounced ‘light’) is a Dougy Center program for youth living in foster care. Dougy Center provides groups both in-person at our houses, and virtually through the Zoom platform.
