Info
You’re invited back.
Join us for the Buddy’s Place Annual Picnic, a free evening of food, activities, and community.
Buddy’s Place is Pillars Community Health’s grief support program for children, teens, young adults, and their families. Through peer support, grief education, and shared experiences, participants discover they are not alone as they learn to live with the death of someone important in their lives.
Each summer, the Buddy’s Place Picnic brings together current participants, alumni, families, volunteers, and supporters in a welcoming, grief-aware environment. Whether you joined Buddy’s Place this year or many years ago, we invite you to reconnect with familiar faces, meet new members of the community, and spend time with people who understand your journey.
Enjoy a shared meal, outdoor activities, and an evening of conversation, connection, and creating new memories together.
