A message from our Executive Director
Dear Jessica's House Community,
At Jessica’s House in May, we are living in the rhythm of a season full of endings and beginnings.
As the school year draws to a close, we pause our peer support groups until our July Summer Session. This month, children and families
gathered for their final group sessions, which are always bittersweet yet meaningful milestones. These closing ceremonies are more than goodbyes. They are moments of reflection, connection, and courage.
This year, we gathered in a circle with a Message in a Bubble ceremony. Each participant wrote a word, a wish, or a memory on a slip of dissolvable paper, tucked it inside a jar of bubbles, and, during our ceremony, blew bubbles to send their messages to their loved ones.
This spring, we are especially grateful to have been present in 16 school groups across four surrounding districts, walking alongside grieving
students in the middle of their everyday lives. Bringing support directly into schools remains one of the most important ways we reach children who might not otherwise find their way to us.
We are also pleased to share that our Annual Report is now available, reflecting a year of growth, service, and community trust. We invite you to take a moment to read the stories and numbers that represent so many real lives touched by grief, and by hope.
Thank you for being part of this work. None of it happens without you.
With warm appreciation,
