The community is invited to their open house on April 11th from 6pm to 8pm. Information about their services and an opportunity to enroll in the Teen Night support group will be available then.

Teen Night support group meetings offer grieving teens the opportunity to find support and understanding from other teens who are experiencing grief after the loss of a friend, classmate or family member.
Our TreeHouse has been serving Whatcom County since 2008. Their Family Program Night in Bellingham is currently facilitated by 18 volunteers serving 20 Families. They also provide support to local schools, such as what was needed after the accidental deaths of two Windward High School students last year.
Our TreeHouse is supported by donations and proceeds of fundraising events.
