BROOKS TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — It’s difficult for anyone to deal with grief, especially for children. But there is help.

Next month, there will be a free, one-day camp for kids called Camp Good Grief. It’s a support program for children ages 8 to 17 who have experienced the loss of a loved one. The day will combine a variety of fun activities along with grief education and emotional support.
