INTERVIEW
In this edition of Catalyst Radio we feature Ele’s Place -- the local nonprofit working to provide support for children, and their families, who are coping with the death of a loved one.
We visit with Gerilyn May, managing director of the organization newly established in Grand Rapids as “A Healing Center for Grieving Children and Teens.”
May describes some of the programs at Ele’s Place such as peer support groups, that help children cope with the death of a parent, sibling or other close family member or friend.
Ele’s Place is also holding an upcoming “Tour of The Heart” event that opens the doors of the center to the public on Dec. 5, for those who want to learn more about the services for grieving children.
Ele’s Place also has a holiday wish list for supplies such as an mp3 player, portable stereo system, construction paper, glitter, and other items used in working with the youth.
MUSIC
Music in this episode of Catalyst Radio is the song “Children of the World,” from Yvad.
