The Latest from
The Children's Room
Our new website shines with light!
We have a new website!

At The Children's Room we have so much to share, whether it be the latest studies on grieving children, new summer camp opportunities or just the latest on what is going on at the house. We wanted a website that could handle all this information and archive it so you can always find older information while we keep the home page fresh.

Aside from making our website easier to update, YOU can now be part of the site too. Each article has a comment section. Want to comment on the latest performance troupe show? Want to tell us why you like our Annual Memories Walk and Fun Run? Want to share more info? Go ahead and visit now!

So enjoy! We would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to Bryan Woody who brought our website into the light!
5th Annual Memories Walk and Fun Run Registration is OPEN!
Join us on Sunday, September 28th at the Medford Boat Club.  We will walk or run a scenic path around the gorgeous Upper Mystic Lakes and then come back together for a BBQ.  On the back of our t-shirts we will list the names of everyone we want to remember.  Deadline for submitting names is the end of August, so register now or learn more

This is a great opportunity for family, friends, volunteers and the community to come together before we launch another great program year.

When you register, you can customize your own fundraising page in memory of someone or just with your friends and family like this one.
