About the McClean Fletcher Center
The McClean Fletcher Center, not for profit, a service of Hospice Ministries, is the first and only grief support program in Mississippi offering a supportive, nurturing environment to grieving children and teens, ages 4-18, after the loss of a loved one or special person in their lives.
The Center offers a safe place in peer support groups where they can interact with others who have experienced similar losses, learn life-long coping skills, and most importantly, begin a healthy healing process.
The Mission of the McClean Fletcher Center
The McClean Center provides support and understanding in a safe and hopeful environment where children, teens, and their families grieving the death of a loved one can embrace their grief and move through the healing process toward peace.
The McClean Center extends support services to families, caregivers, schools, and other agencies in the Jackson Metro area while functioning as a resource to the entire state.

Grief and Children
It is a startling fact that so many children and teens will lose a loved one so early in life, when the need for love, guidance and security is so acute. Many times, these children have no outlet for their grief, and do not know how to express their feelings.
The McClean Fletcher Center helps families journey through their grief to find healing and peace. It is a safe place which helps them integrate love, life and loss into their daily lives.
The effects of losing a loved one cross all cultural and economic boundaries. We understand that when a loved one dies, it is often a difficult time financially. The Center does not charge fees for its services. We rely on private individual donations, foundation grants, special events, and the support of Hospice Ministries.
