Camp Erin is The Moyer Foundation's largest and furthest reaching initiative - a free bereavement camp designed for children ages 6-17 who have experienced the death of a family member or friend. It is a weekend-long camp experience filled with traditional, fun, outdoor activities combined with grief education and emotional support. Bereavement professionals, licensed counselors and trained volunteers lead age appropriate groups through clinical bereavement activities such as art therapy, journaling, planned discussions and remembrance ceremonies. These activities give grieving youth the opportunity to process and validate their feelings while interacting with peers also dealing with loss. With support from companies, community leaders, individuals and other foundations, The Moyer Foundation funds these camps for a minimum of ten years, ensuring the Camp Erin program becomes an important part of community
healing and growth.

This year Camp Erin - Baltimore will hold its first ever session, serving grieving children in your community. Camp will be held for at least 50 grieving kids and teens July 23-25, 2010 in North East Maryland.
