Barr-Harris 50th Anniversary – Leadership Circle

For 50 years, Barr-Harris Children’s Grief Center has been a lifeline for children and families navigating loss.

Honor Barr-Harris’s life-trajectory-changing grief and loss program, its groundbreaking research that documented the long-term impact of early intervention, the community partnerships that make care directly accessible to those who need it most, and the individuals key to Barr-Harris’s success.

Over the last decade alone, Barr-Harris has served almost 3,000 children, adolescents and family members and delivered more than 32,000 hours of individual and group treatment.
