In July 2023, FOX 17 carried an invitation from Ele’s Place West Michigan to adults interested in becoming volunteer facilitators. The branch was preparing an August training for people who would spend group evenings with children and teenagers after a death.
Facilitators help make it possible for children to meet others their age at no cost. A visitor to the Grand Rapids branch had earlier documented what that work looked like: volunteers learning alongside experienced facilitators, then returning to the group over time.
