To lose someone dear can be the most difficult experience of a lifetime. Grieving people long for a road map that will show them the way through. Papillon will help you find your way, support you in giving your loss a voice, and in learning how to grieve and to remember with love.

Introducing Our Partner Coastal Kids Home Care
With over twenty years of experience caring for children with serious illness and those facing end-of-life, Coastal Kids Home Care has long prioritized bereavement care to help parents and siblings heal after loss. With its ever expanding mental health counseling program, Coastal Kids Home Care offers access to one-to-one counseling for children and teens. In early 2021, Coastal Kids formally incorporated the Papillon Center for Loss & Transition adult bereavement groups into its programs.
Margy Mayfield, Chief Executive Officer of Coastal Kids Home Care stated, “When we heard about Papillon Center for Loss & Transition, our team recognized an opportunity to collaborate with this important community partner to bring healing and support to our community in grief.”
