Children of Homicide Victims – Grand Opening

🎁 Join us for an exciting “Unboxing” experience as we reveal COHV’s new home for healing!

This new space is more than walls and rooms; it’s a sanctuary where grief meets healing, where broken hearts will find community, and where children don’t have to navigate loss alone.

For years, COHV had done the best we could, meeting only a few times a month, but now we can do MORE! We can be here when they need us the most. We can offer a space where hope isn’t a feeling — it’s a place. A place for more programming, more healing, more love, and for more second chances.

Just like opening a special gift, this event will take you on a journey through our new space, highlighting the impact, vision, and opportunities for you to be part of something greater.

Thank you for supporting our mission forward! We hope to see you to celebrate your partnership and what this means to us.
