In this episode of The Lost Child Podcast, we sit down with Juli, the cofounder of Billy's Place, a peer-led grief support group for families based in Phoenix (West Valley). Billy's Place offers a safe space for those dealing with loss—whether from the death of a child, sibling, parent, grandparent, or friend. Through various group nights, including kids' nights, teen nights, and adult-only groups, Billy's Place helps families cope with grief in a community setting, where individuals can share their experiences and find comfort. Juli shares her personal journey of creating this vital nonprofit after the loss of her husband and son Billy's father, and how she brought the peer support group model to Arizona.

Billy's Place has grown over the years and now even provides grief training in schools to support children who have experienced loss. In this episode, Juli discusses the impact of their work, the power of community in healing, and how you can get involved.

If you are struggling with grief, loss, or the death of a loved one, this episode is a valuable resource. Learn about the incredible work of Billy's Place and the support they offer to families in need.
