Camp Widow

15m 21s

Born out of a need to connect with others over the life-altering experience of widowhood, Michele Neff Hernandez launched Camp Widow, a yearly gathering for people wanting help navigating the tricky waters of grief. Weary of platitudes from well-meaning friends who think they should be “moving on," Camp Widow is a place to share a warm hug, to commiserate, and to make new friends for life.
