The new website offers information about the project and is easy to navigate. It offers information currently available about the new hospital with a few clicks of the mouse.

Finding Rainbow after tragedy St. Judes Rainbow program is accepting registrations for its 14-week program beginning January 2009. Rainbows is a support group for children experiencing grieving or loss. It is a not-for-profit, international organization, with charitable status in Canada, that offers training and curricula for establishing peer support groups for children grieving death, separation, divorce or other painful loss in their family. When a change takes place in the family, whether a death, divorce, separation or abandonment, it has an effect on all members in a family. Grieving is a natural process, which evolves from an emotional loss. If it isn't facilitated at the appropriate time, it may be repressed or become chronic. When grief does not have an opportunity to be resolved, its impact can be destructive. Rainbows is for children, Kindergarten to Grade 8 and Spectrum for adolescents in Grades 9 to 12 who seek support for grief or loss can be registered in advance by an adult. Registration can be done through the church office at 160 William St. or by calling 905-844-3972. The national office for RAINBOWS in Canada is located in Barrie.
