Josie’s Place provides support in a safe and caring environment, to children, teens, and their families in the San Francisco Bay Area who are grieving a death of a family member or friend.We support families through education, compassion and understanding as they integrate loss into their lives at their own pace.Josie’s Place is founded on the belief that all children deserve the opportunity to grieve in a supportive and understanding environment. Josie’s Place is based on the model created by the Dougy Center in Portland, OR. Josie's Place is a fiscally sponsored project of the San Francisco Study Center.
