P2P: Peer to Peer Program Launched!

Our unique Villager program has begun and training is underway. Soon we will have trained Villagers who want to help others live and cope with their loss in a healthy way. If you would like to partner with a peer volunteer to help support you on your grief journey, please let us know. If you’d like to volunteer to become a trained Villager, please click the link below. This experience is transformational both for our Villagers and our families.

Family Testimonial

"In our case we were not looking for money, but information and advice. You gave us valuable information about what services Carson's Village provides. We did read the information provided by Baylor Scott & White Hospital Plano which gave us some info, but we wanted more details of what you provided. You also shared your website offering to help generate donations, which could be very helpful.

Getting advice on cremation options and relating your own experiences with family death was extremely helpful. This all made us feel at ease and understood the topics we needed to discuss as a grieving family.

Your guidance around blood relatives and how family dynamics with step-relatives can become legal issues [was helpful]. This prompted discussion about probate and court procedures. Our discussions along this line gave us insight into legal considerations. Thank you for providing probate attorney references as a starting point for our family to contact.

I hope this information assists you and your team with helping others. On behalf of the Berkey family, we thank you for your assistance in our time of need."

- James and Joyce Berkey
