How Beanie Feldstein’s Brother Jordan’s Death Inspired Her to Become a Counselor at a Camp for Grieving Teens

The Booksmart star opens up about being a counselor at Experience Camps, a free summer camp for youth who have lost an immediate family member: 'It's changed my heart'

She learned they are a free, weeklong program offered at 15 camps across seven states each summer to kids from 4th grade to 12th who have lost a family member. Experience Camps recently launched the website Griefsucks.com, which is run in part by a youth advisory board of teens and campers. "We're committed to transforming the way society approaches grief, moving away from avoidance and towards understanding and support, through youth-informed education and advocacy efforts," says Deren.
