The mission of Comfort Zone Family Retreat is to walk beside you as you experience your grief journey.

Families or individuals who have experienced the loss of a significant person are invited to apply for the Comfort Zone Family Retreat. The retreat does require the family/individual to participate by staying on site from Friday evening through Sunday afternoon. The number of participants is limited, so register early!

Cost is only $10.00 per family member, for the entire Comfort Zone Family Retreat! (includes 6 meals and 2 nights lodging) Financial aid is available to assist families who would not otherwise be able to attend.

Grief is a natural part of life and a process that needs to be experienced fully. Emotions must not be blocked or interrupted. Because each person’s grief & coping skills are unique, conflict and hard feelings often arise within families going through bereavement.

Comfort Zone Family Retreat is  designed to recognize these differences and encourage families to be open and supportive.  There is discomfort and pain in grief, but through the activities and processes of the weekend, families and individuals come to realize they are not alone and they are “normal”.

      Comfort Zone Family Retreat Goals:

• Acknowledge the loss and the feelings surrounding the loss.
• Acknowledge that we are not alone in our grief.
• Educate families on coping and survivor skills.
• Encourage families to be open and supportive within their own family unit.
