  • Why should I come to Camp SHIELD?
    We heal best in community. And child loss is the most devasting pain that someone can feel. Oftentimes, members of a family who have lost a child drift apart. Camp SHIELD allows grieving families connect with their family, as well as with their peers who are on the same journey.
  • Does Camp SHIELD really cost $10 per person?
    Yes! Jacoby's Shield is committed to providing quality bereavement services and resources to families at an affordable price. Camp SHIELD Family Bereavement Retreat is offered at only $10 per person to ensure that everyone can access the care they need during this difficult time.
  • Is their an age limit for the loss of my child?
    No. Whether you had a miscarriage, your child was stillborn or 50 years old, Camp SHIELD is for you.
  • I lost my loved one ___ years ago, can I come?
    Yes. It's a myth that time heals all wounds. If you are stuck in your grief, come and find support.
  • No one else from my family wants to come. Can I come alone?
    Yes, you are welcome to come alone to Camp SHIELD. We understand that families are not always able to attend together, and we are happy to have you join us.
  • What about COVID? What's your COVID policy?
    If you think you've been exposed, or are possibly experiencing symptoms, please do not come.

If you have any questions about Jacoby's Shield, or any of the grief services that we offer, please get in touch with us.
