Father’s Retreat

Bereaved fathers often report having difficulties finding grief support that is tailored to their needs and share that they often feel overlooked. Through years of experience, we have also learned that fathers typically employ different coping strategies than mothers, including avoiding talking about the death, keeping busy with distractions, and returning to work more quickly. 

In hopes of changing the narrative, 3Hopeful Hearts has offered a Bereaved Dads Support group since 2017. This year, we have decided to take this support to a new level as we host our first overnight retreat for grieving dads.  Bruce Barker, support group facilitator and bereaved father himself, will lead this mountain retreat time. His vision for this time away includes time to share stories, connect with others who are also grieving their children, and engage in meaningful conversations all while enjoying the beautiful mountain scenery and activities that Sky Corral Ranch has to offer.

Please give yourself this time of reflection and join us in the Inaugural Father’s Retreat.
