Young Adult Program
Grief Support Opportunities
Young adults are often overlooked when it comes to losing a parent or sibling at this stage in life. Our Young Adult program provides an opportunity to connect with others in this age group. From weekend retreats, social events and monthly support groups, this program addresses the specific needs and concerns of grieving young adults. Each group provides options for the type of loss; we will adjust as needed based on the number of registrations. To learn more, contact Katie Eisold, Young Adult and Family Program Director: katie@brighterdaysgriefcenter.org
Internships
Our pay it forward mentality with our volunteers blends with our internship program offering young adults the opportunity to build their resume while working for a great cause! If you are interested in peer-based mentoring, marketing, fundraising, social media, public speaking or social work opportunities, please contact info@brighterdaysgriefcenter.org
Ambassador Program
We are looking for passionate ambassadors to spread our message, and to create peer-based support groups throughout college campuses. Please email our Counseling Intern, Ryan Moravetz at ryan@brighterdaysgriefcenter.org to learn more.
