About this Event
Joined on the Journey is a heartfelt one-day gathering created for bereaved parents—mothers, fathers, caregivers and grandparents who have experienced the unimaginable death of a child.
This is not a seminar. It's not a conference. It's a space of understanding—a place to connect with others who “get it.” Whether your loss was recent or years ago, this day is for you.
💛 Upon arrival, you'll receive a welcome bag and have the chance to fill it with comforting and helpful grief resources: books, journals, children’s books, pens, tissues, comfort items, and more.
🗣 A keynote speaker (either live or via video) will guide us through compassionate conversations about grief, love, and healing.
💬 Small groups will meet throughout the day, offering time to share stories, reflect on common themes of grief, and witness one another without judgment.
🕯 We will close the day with a memorial slideshow honoring children who left us too soon. To include your child, please email a photo (by 8/8/25) to:
