New Song Center for Grieving Children
Out of an abundance of caution, New Song Center for Grieving Children is temporarily suspending grief support groups Valley-wide. Please be assured that we will continue to provide support by phone and email, and are exploring more options. Families with questions may call (480) 951-8985 or email info@newsongcenter.org. Read this important update from New Song Director Lisa Schmitt and see our New Song Connections page for helpful tips and activities until we can meet again.
Helping families heal.
New Song Center is open to any child, teen, and young adult in our community, who is grieving the death of a loved one—regardless of whether Hospice of the Valley cared for that family member.
We'll find the right group to help your family heal. There is no cost to attend New Song support groups or activities.
We also support schools, businesses and community groups that need grief counseling or education.
