Rick’s RAY of Hope
Rick’s R.A.Y. of Hope has been the regional center for grieving and traumatized youth for the past 16 years offering hope and guidance to children experiencing grief, loss or trauma issues. The center became a program of the Vera French Community Mental Health Center in July 2015 as Rick’s House of Hope. The program was renamed to Rick’s RAY of Hope in September 2023 with the move to the Vera French Clinic at Duck Creek.
Rick’s RAY of Hope offers fall, winter, and spring support groups for children of all ages and developmental levels, special holiday events for coping with that time of year, crisis debriefing for traumatic situations involving children, and two one-week summer day camps
