>>> ALL RIGHT, WE'RE BACK WITH
ANOTHER EDITION OF HOMES WITH
HEATHER.
THIS MONTH HOMES WITH HEATHER
HAS BEEN HELPING VALERIE'S HOUSE
FIND A NEW HOME.
I'M SO HAPPY TO WELCOME BACK
VALERIE'S HOUSE.
GOOD MORNING, LADIES.
>> THANKS FOR HAVING US.
>> I'M SO EXCITED TO TALK ABOUT
THE PARTNERSHIP YOU GUYS HAVE
CREATED WITH ONE ANOTHER.
HEATHER, TALK ABOUT THE PROCESS
AND WHY DO YOU THINK THIS WILL
MAKE A PERFECT PLACE FOR
CHILDREN?
>> VALERIE'S HOUSE REALLY WARMS
MY HOUSE BECAUSE SHE'S REALLY
HELPING CHILDREN THAT HAVE LOST
A PARENT, SO WE -- THEIR LEASE
IS UP THE END OF AUGUST, SO
WE'RE ON THE HUNT RIGHT NOW TO
FIND THE PERFECT HOUSE FOR
VALERIE'S HOUSE THAT HAS ENOUGH
ROOMS TO GIVE THE CHILDREN THE
SPACE THEY NEED TO HAVE
INDIVIDUAL GROUP SETTINGS.
>> WHY IS THIS ORGANIZATION SO
COMMUNITY?
>> WELL, VALERIE'S HOUSE WAS
LAUNCHED -- I LAUNCHED IT ABOUT
A YEAR AND A HALF AGO IN HONOR
OF MY OWN MOTHER WHO WAS
VALERIE.
SHE DIED IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN
1987, AND THERE WERE NO GRIEVING
SUPPORT SERVICES FOR MY FAMILY
AND I, SO WHEN I MOVED BACK TO
MY HOMETOWN A COUPLE YEARS AGO I
THOUGHT, THERE HAS TO BE
SOMETHING FOR KIDS WHO HAVE LOST
SOMEONE.
I WAS LOOKING TO VOLUNTEER.
WASN'T ANYTHING.
SO I STARTED RESEARCHING WHAT
WAS AVAILABLE IN OTHER
COMMUNITIES AND KIND OF PUT
TOGETHER THIS CONCEPT WHERE KIDS
AND FAMILIES COME TOGETHER AND
MENTOR EACH OTHER THROUGH THEIR
PAIN, AND THEY CONNECT AND THEY
KNOW THEY'RE NOT THE ONLY KIDS
SOMEONE.
IT'S A SPECIAL HOUSE.
THEY DON'T ACTUALLY LIVE THERE,
BUT THEY COME THERE ONCE A WEEK
DEPENDING ON THAT I SHALL AGE,
AND THEY DO A LOT OF ARTS AND
CRAFTS AND DIFFERENT KIND OF
MEMORY-MAKING ACTIVITIES TO HELP
THEM TALK ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS
>> WHAT A GREAT PROGRAM,
ESPECIALLY TO HAVE THAT SUPPORT.
YOU NEED THAT SUPPORT,
ESPECIALLY AT A YOUNG AGE.
WHAT WAS IT, HEATHER, THAT MADE
YOU WANT TO PARTNER WITH THEM?
>> WHEN I HEARD ANGELA'S STORY
AS A MOM OF TWO LITTLE GIRLS MY
BIGGEST FEAR IN LIFE IS
SOMETHING HAPPENING TO MYSELF OR
MY HUSBAND, AND SO TO KNOW THAT
THERE'S AN ORGANIZATION LIKE
VALERIE'S HOUSE THAT REALLY
GIVES THE CHILDREN, PROVIDES
THAT GROUP SETTING, AND I LOVE
THE CREATIVE ART THERAPY AND HOW
THEY CAN GET THEIR EMOTIONS OUT,
IT WARMS MY HEART AND I WANTED
TO SEE HOW I COULD GET INVOLVED,
AND IT HAPPENED THROUGH THAT
PROCESS THEY'RE LOOKING FOR A
HOME RIGHT NOW.
VALERIE.
>> YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THAT
SITUATION CAN HAPPEN YOU TO YOU.
YOU WANT YOUR FAMILY TO BE
SYSTEM.
ANGELA.
