Growing as They Grieve
A special guide for providers supporting children who are grieving.
Loss can feel all-encompassing and, when it comes to supporting a grieving child, it can be difficult to know where to start. Use this guide to:
- gain a foundational understanding of what grief may look and feel like for children at different ages and stages,
- explore different activities to help children identify and express their big feelings, and
- discover ways to build empathy in every child.
Remember, you don’t have to have all of the answers, but your care and understanding can make a big difference in the life of a grieving child.
