Children's Bereavement Camp

Camp Galilee, Nevada
August 11-13, 2023

Camp Sunrise is a FREE grief camp designed for children ages 7–14 who have experienced the death of a family member. Children receive grief education and support through a variety of fun-filled activities and programs.

“Teens and children grieve differently than adults, and have additional needs when it comes to loss. This is why Camp Sunrise is so important—we assist campers in developing healthy coping skills that will benefit them throughout their lives.”
- Tina Bruess, Director of Camp Sunrise and grief counselor with Barton Hospice
