DescServing the SF Bay Area since 1976, Kara provides comprehensive grief support and education services to the community through individual and group peer support; in-house psychotherapy; on site crisis intervention; bereavement education and training services; Camp Erin, a bereavement camp for children 6-17 years old; and community events. Staff and nearly 200 trained volunteers provide the care, compassion, connection, and community necessary to facilitate healing for those who ae grieving. Peer support grief services are provided on a donation basis and without limit to the duration. In addition, fee-based therapeutic services are provided on a sliding scale.Kara's services are designed to meet the unique needs of those coping with loss and grief. These services are provided through the following programs: Youth & Family Services and Adult Services: These two programs offer extensive and high quality services to meet the unique needs of individuals (children, adolescents, adults and seniors) and families who have experienced a loss or are anticipating a death. Services are provided in both group and individual formats and English and Spanish. Community Outreach and Training & Education Services: Kara provides on- site critical incident and crisis intervention and grief education services to schools, companies and community organizations dealing with death, trauma, and loss. Clinical Therapy Services: Kara provides individual, couples and family therapy (on a sliding-scale basis) for those whose grief is coupled with clinical issues that necessitate support beyond what a peer-support model can provide, such as depression, substance abuse, anxiety or PTSD. Community Events: Annual WalknRun to Remember and Annual Candlelight Service of Remembrance2017 AccomplishmentsKara served over 5,000 Bay Area community members with highlights as follows: 567 individuals received support in our grief groups for adults and children;85 children attended our summer grief camp for kids - Camp Erin;Over 2,125 children and adults from 74 agencies received support from our Community Outreach and Education Program through 137 service events;150 adults and children received 1,883 hours of support from our therapy program;265 adults received ongoing support through our one-to-one peer counseling in Spanish and English; and 1,182 community members received grief support consultations, outreach and special workshops.A family served by Kara shared the following: "Words cannot thank you enough for the love and emotional support you provided to our family during our time of bereavement, loss and great sorrow. We were unprepared for the loss of our son when he took his own life. It was healing for us to talk about him, remember him and what he meant to each of us. You provided the framework for this sharing and the results were an immeasurable sense of love and support. Your work is meaningful and needed. We appreciate you being there for us and glad that you can be there for so many others that are moving through the grieving process."Desc
