Tamarack Grief Resource Center

09/06/2026

As a year-round grief center, we are honored to walk alongside so many folks throughout the journey with grief. Although we can't take the pain away, we can offer moments of light, peace, and connection. 🕯

These ✨glimmers✨ - these moments of peace, connection, and comfort in each group, phone call, counseling session, camp, community workshop, and more -
help pave the journey with grief - with hope. 💚

Our work is not possible without the support of a generous circle of folks who believe in the power of accessible grief care. 100% of our group grief support participants receive care regardless of ability to pay.

As part of the Great Fish Community Challenge, we will receive a % match on funds raised up to $25,000 - we need just $6,414 by Sept. 11 to reach that goal! 🎉

May we be a glimmer for so many walking the journey with grief. 🫶✨

A note from TGRC's Executive Director, Dr. Tina B:

For nearly 20 years, TGRC has offered year-round support for youth and adults throughout the region.

Now the demand for services is higher than ever. We've already responded to as many requests for services year to date in the Flathead Valley, than in all of last year - with a third of the year yet to go.

At TGRC, we are honored to answer the call. We are proud to have a talented, compassionate team ready and able to support kids, adults, communities, and professionals.

This is where you come in.

Quality programming and skilled talent has a cost.

As we lean in to provide more care for more folks, we find ourselves at a budget deficit: $41,000.

Can you help?

If you've ever considered a gift to TGRC, now is the time.

As part of the Great Fish Community Challenge, funds raised up to $25,000 are eligible for a percentage match. This means every dollar is stretched and the impact of your gift is greater.

Recently a woman shared, "I don't know where I'd be without Tamarack Grief Resource Center, but I sure know where I was before."

Fortunately, you don't have to know.

Tamarack Grief Resource Center is here. 💚

On , we share this post from our friends at NACG. Grief is not limited to a single day or moment and is unique to each person.

TGRC offers year round grief support and education for youth, adults, individuals, families and community members ❤️

Today, and every day, may you know you do not have to grieve alone.
✨

It's , and this day can serve as a reminder that grief is not limited to a single day or moment. Youth and families who are grieving continue to experience their grief as they grow, change, and experience new milestones.

At the NACG, we recognize that grief is unique to each person and children often experience and express grief differently than adults. Understanding common themes of childhood grief can help adults better recognize and support children who are grieving. Learn more about childhood grief in our free resource at https://bit.ly/3Zcib97.
