Rainbows


"RAINBOWS" provides a bridge to emotional healing for children and adolescents confronting death, divorce, or other painful family transition - "because it doesn't need to hurt forever".

The aim of "RAINBOWS"  is to furnish the participants with an understanding of their new family unit, to assist in building a stronger self-esteem, and to direct them toward a healthy resolution of the changes that have taken place in their personal lives.  You can visit www.rainbowsjax.org for more general information or contact the local Rainbows Program Coordinator, Carol Ginzl at (904) 363-9628 or ginzljax@comcast.net
