Billy’s Place groups are tailored to our families, with unique spaces for people who have lost a special person. Our groups include family groups for kids who have lost a sibling, parent or significant person in their lives, Young Adult Groups, Adult Men and Women’s Groups, a kids-only kicking back night and a Traumatic Loss group which are those who have lost a loved one due to suicide, drug overdose, or homicide. Adult and kid virtual groups are offered and can be accessed from anywhere.
All facilitators participate in a comprehensive training that teaches them about group facilitation skills and the impact of grief on children, teens and their families. Some facilitators have personal grief experiences and many are mental health professionals.
All of our groups and events are provided at no cost to the family. We are supported by generous individuals and organizations who are committed to ensuring every kid and family has a safe community in which to grieve.

Guidance counselors, teachers, coaches, and other professionals who serve kids each day are the first-responders for multiple family support needs. These are the trusted adults who will see a kid each day and have tremendous influence over whether they know how to get along with friends following a traumatic experience, if they succeed in academics, and if they receive the support they need.
Billy’s Place partners with the New York Life Foundation and brings The Grief Sensitive Schools Initiative, grief training, and resources to schools throughout Peoria, Glendale, and the greater Phoenix area. Our school bereavement liaison partners with school districts and community programs to deliver trainings, with a goal of certifying every school as a Grief Sensitive School.
