Talks about the “Helping Hearts Heal” program
“Adam’s House has been an absolute God send to us as we deal with our grief. It is like a refugee camp for those of us whose lives have been shattered by a loved one’s death. They offer comfort, hope, resources and connection.”
“The activities for the kids were amazing. My children have a vocabulary and a positive way to communicate after the program. I don’t know how I would help my children without Adam’s house program. Thank you so much!!!”
“I started drinking, because the pain was so bad I thought I was in a horrible nightmare that I could not wake up from. Adam house helped me stop drinking, realizing drinking is another add-on problem making the situation worst.”
“I was taught to put on my oxygen mask so I can help my son. We were so numb before but now enjoy mountain biking again (we use d to do it as a family), we can talk about our loved one and laugh about the good times we had.”
