The organization donated supplies for Hearts & Crafts’ 14th annual Camp Grief Busters, a camp for bereaved children and their families, which will take place on June 4th and 5th. In addition, they assembled baskets with sewing supplies to create pillows for the children of Hearts & Crafts to receive when they begin their counseling. Hearts & Crafts Grief Counseling was
founded in 1994 by Laura Hudson, board certified art therapist, and co-directed by Terry DeBrule, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, to serve families living with serious illness and loss and is dedicated to providing a safe, caring environment as families work through their healing process. Situated in a cozy carriage house to create a home away from home, the counseling center has an art room, family room, and loft to replace the conventional psychotherapy office model. Clients, who can range in age from 4 to 99, receive both individual counseling and support groups. Coming from 43 towns in New Jersey and 36 towns in New York, most clients are referred by schools, medical practices, and other Hearts & Crafts families who have benefited from their services. Over the past 17 years Hearts & Crafts Grief Counseling has grown from serving initially 20 families to approximately 250 children and adults each year. Services provided include Art Therapy, Individual and Family Counseling; Children’s Support Groups; Teen Support Groups; Parent/Adult Support Groups; and Community Education. Scholarships are available for qualifying clients. Funding is secured through individual charitable donations.
