This mission-based event is family friendly, made for all ages, and will feature therapy animals, music, raffles, activities, food and fun to make for a memorable event.

Billy’s Place features four main programs: Peer-to-Peer Grief Support Groups, Grief-Informed Schools Training, Grief Resource Center and Community Support and Education for those ages 3 to 30 and their family members at no cost.
