Description:
The purpose of this program is to help provide bereavement support services and grief counseling for children, teens, and young adults who have experienced the loss of a parent, sibling, or loved one, regardless of the circumstances of the death. Although the programs that the funding agency partners with are diverse in their approach, all utilize the peer support group model to facilitate children’s expression of painful and conflicted thoughts and feelings about the death of a loved one, without judgment. The funding agency is particularly interested in creating innovative initiatives in the field of childhood bereavement.
