ABOUT HEAL TOGETHER
In response to the suffering so many have experienced throughout the pandemic, Hospice Giving Foundation established Heal Together, a major grant focused exclusively on the expansion of grief and bereavement care, to be available bilingually throughout Monterey County. In December 2021, Hospice Giving Foundation announced the local non-profit organization that was awarded the Heal Together Grant was Coastal Kids Home Care. With over fifteen years of experience caring for children with serious illness and those facing end-of-life, Coastal Kids Home Care has long prioritized bereavement care to help parents and siblings heal after loss. However, early in 2020, we recognized that our whole community was hurting. With an expanding mental health counseling program, Coastal Kids broadened access to counseling for children, teens and adults.
The Heal Together Hub is a central source of information on community resources to respond to grief, loss, and anxiety. Heal Together combines the talents of mental health professionals and trusted community agencies to meet the incredible need for healing and hope. We hope you will join us.

Siobhan Greene, President, and CEO of Hospice Giving Foundation commented, “Though some of us may have been spared tragic, profound loss, we all have shared experiences ranging from lost routines, isolation, or missing loved ones and friends. Grief from this pandemic is palpable. This initiative is completely aligned with our mission. The gratitude we have for all who contributed is immense, and to our providers locally, we thank you and are honored to be able to help.”

Licensed bilingual counselors served families and children without interruption via telehealth or with social distancing. In early 2021, we incorporated Papillon Center for Loss and Transition adult bereavement groups into our programs. Margy Mayfield, Executive Director of Coastal Kids Home Care stated, “When we heard about the Heal Together initiative, our team recognized an opportunity to collaborate with community partners to bring healing and growth during these difficult times.”
The Heal Together Hub at Coastal Kids Home Care initiated services in early December. Please continue to check back for more resources. Our community is grieving. Heal Together is here to help.
