Precious Gems Supportive Services

The mission of PGSS is to help children and families who have experienced a loss through death to move through the grief process by offering grief/bereavement support/counseling as needed regardless of ability to pay.

We provide information and educational programs relating to grief and loss for healthcare staffs, community leaders, teachers, and clergy.

We offer services throughout the Philadelphia community and nearby Montgomery County (Glenside, Ambler, and Jenkintown).

All are served. However, special emphasis is placed on underserved and vulnerable individuals. This group would include children (in foster care, single-parent households, and those considered “at risk”), the elderly, and ethnic minorities.

At present, the main emphasis is on children. Since PGSS is a non-profit organization whose services are entirely free, we hope to help those most in need by ensuring that finances and medical insurance are not required to obtain the needed assistance.
