CAMP ERIN® TORONTO: REMEMBERING TOGETHER

Camp Erin Toronto is a free, weekend bereavement camp for youth who are grieving the  death of a significant person in their lives. Children and teens ages 6 to 17 attend a weekend camp experience that combines grief education and emotional support with fun, traditional camp activities. Led by bereavement professionals and caring volunteers, campers are provided a safe environment to explore their grief, learn essential coping skills, and make friends with peers who are also grieving.

Because of the significant level of need, children are only able to attend one Camp Erin overnight camp.

Camp Erin Toronto will invite 120 campers to join us at camp this year. Click the green button on the top corner if you wish to receive information about attending camp.
Camp Erin Information Sessions are held every October and November. This year’s scheduled dates and times are October 8th, October 17th and November 7th, 2024. Click here to REGISTER.
