Find Support, Healing and Community

NBCopes offers guidance, creative expression, and community for grieving children and families,  regardless of financial means.

Children Grieve Differently

From young children to youth, we recognize the unique ways young people grieve and the importance of supporting the entire family to cope with loss.

Grief Support Beyond Words

We understand that grief can't always be expressed in traditional therapy settings. That's why we use art, music, and outdoor activities to help children, youth, and families laugh, cry, and feel everything in between.

Helping Children and Families Heal After Loss

When a family experiences loss, children and youth need specialized support. NBCopes provides a safe space for children and youth to express their grief creatively while offering guidance and resources for the entire family.

You Are Not Alone in Your Grief

Loss can be isolating. NBCopes offers a community where families can connect with others who understand their experiences. We provide camps, resources, and events that foster a sense of belonging and shared understanding.

Healing Hearts and Building Hope

NBCopes offers a lifeline to children, youth, and families navigating the complexities of grief by blending the power of community, creative therapies, and expert guidance. We provide age-appropriate grief support for children and youth and resources for parents and caregivers. Together, we build a community where children, youth and families, foster connections with others who understand. With NBCopes, families find a safe space to express their grief, discover healthy coping tools, and embark on a journey of healing and hope.

The retreat was a safe space...for my girls to experience grief work through art and music and the horses.
My grief experience has not been linear. It’s been messy and overwhelmingly sad and hopeless at times.
