Everyone deserves access to a safe space where they feel heard, validated, and supported in their grief journey. The Tidewell Family Grief Center provides it.
Uplifting people in their grief journey
The Tidewell Family Grief Center in Ellenton is a first-of-its-kind facility in our region that provides holistic grief support for individuals, families, and the community. The center initiates experiences essential to the healing of mind, body, and spirit for children and adults after losing a loved one.
Tidewell Family Grief Center clients have access to opportunities to meet their own grief needs, whether through one-on-one sessions, groups, art therapy, meditation, or alternative therapies. It also includes a special space for Tidewell’s Blue Butterfly program, the region’s only evidence-based grief program for children ages 5-18 and families who have experienced the loss of a parent, sibling, or another significant person in their lives.
The Ellenton location serves as a pilot for future Tidewell Family Grief Centers across the region, and the Tidewell Foundation welcomes donations to help make them a reality.
Tidewell Hospice’s grief services help people through some of their darkest days as they seek to find light and healing. 100 percent donor supported through contributions to the Tidewell Foundation, these services are offered for free to members of our community.
