“Camp Erin San Diego offers a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children coping with the loss of a loved one,” said Jan Jones, President and CEO of The Elizabeth Hospice. “We are able to provide comprehensive grief and loss support programs like Camp Erin San Diego because of the generosity shown by our community members and businesses.”
 
As a recent camper described: “Camp Erin helped me to see that I am not alone in the state of grief. The grief itself is not one feeling, it is broken up into different groups of feelings. I loved to listen to other people’s stories and it got me thinking that I am not alone and that other people think alike in grief.”
