Every Summer, Joel’s Place holds a Butterfly Release where children and their families release a live butterfly in memory of their loved one, followed by a picnic lunch. This allows our active families to reconnect during the summer, provides an opportunity for reunion of previous participants, and an opportunity for introduction and inclusion of new families interested in Joel’s Place.
