Judi's House

Judi's House Judi's House is a community-based nonprofit bereavement center for children and families.

Founded by former NFL quarterback Brian Griese and his wife, Dr. Brook Griese, Judi’s House is a tribute to Brian’s mother, Judi, whom he lost to breast cancer when he was 12. As Brian grew up grieving this loss, he made a commitment to use his resources to positively impact grieving children. The Grieses discovered that there were no organizations devoted to this population and dedicated themselves to offering a safe, compassionate environment where children could grieve and begin the lifelong healing process.

We’re grateful for opportunities to broaden the conversation around childhood grief. Our CEO, Micki Burns, PhD, recently joined Dr. Patti Ashley on The Inner Space Project podcast to share more about our mission, the work of JAG Institute, and why grief‑informed support is so important for children and families.

In this “Endings” episode, Dr. Burns discusses the emotional complexity of childhood grief and how Judi’s House provides free, research‑informed care to help families find connection, healing, and hope after a death loss.

In honor of National Quilting Day, we’re celebrating a cherished Judi’s House tradition that brings comfort, creativity, and connection to the families we serve.

During the final session of our Pathfinders program, families design a quilt square to honor their grief journey or memorialize the person who died. These squares are filled with photographs, meaningful words, personal items, artwork, and other decorations that reflect each family’s unique story.

Once completed, our incredible Volunteer Quilters lovingly stitch these squares into beautiful quilts displayed throughout Judi’s House—offering families a place to visit, remember, and see their experiences reflected in community.

If you are a quilter interested in using your craft to support grieving children and families, we would be grateful for your partnership. Learn more: https://judishouse.org/quilter-volunteer/

A little competition goes a long way for this team! This week's March Madness lunch was a great reminder of how connection fuels and strengthens the work we do at Judi’s House. Staff and interns got to enjoy an amazing spread of chicken wings from our very own Chef Panya while filling out our men’s and women’s brackets together. 🏀💙

Each year, Judi’s House/JAG Institute is honored to welcome a new cohort of organizations from across the country into our Childhood Bereavement Changemakers program, made possible through the generous support from the New York Life Insurance Company Foundation.

These partners are stepping into a year‑long journey designed to deepen their data practices, strengthen their evaluation systems, and ultimately expand the impact of grief-support services in their own communities. By investing in their growth, we’re helping grief organizations nationwide build more responsive, culturally attuned, and sustainable care for the families they serve.

Please join us in celebrating this year’s Changemakers! We’re excited for the learning, collaboration, and meaningful change ahead.
