The evening will include Phil’s BBQ, Americana Roots Rock live music by Jerry G. and the Inlanders, dancing, and an auction. Heart & Soul will be held at Williams’ Farm in Walnut Grove Park, San Marcos, from 6 p.m. to 9 pm. Everyone in the community (21 years or older) is invited to attend. The cost per person is $175. One in 17 children will experience the death of a parent or sibling before they reach the age of 18. That’s why caring for our community’s children is a critical element of The Elizabeth Hospice’s mission. Without grief support, children are at higher-than-average risk for problems in school, substance abuse, depression and anxiety. The Elizabeth Hospice’s Children’s Bereavement Program is the only one of its kind in San Diego County and Southwest Riverside County. The program includes school-based grief support groups in 19 school districts, peer-based grief support groups held throughout the school year in Children’s Bereavement Centers in Escondido and Mission Valley, summer grief camp, and community grief education and support. Services are free of charge, and everyone is welcome to participate. Registration for Heart & Soul is now open here!
