The Grief Support Group meets for 8 consecutive weeks for education and guided grief processing through the evidence-based Grief Recovery Method. The group dynamic experience is powerful for those who appreciate interacting, sharing perspectives, and learning with others in person or online. Due to the shared experience and bonding that occurs, the relationships built through the group experience are often long lasting.

HCWL is for adults - parents and family, teachers, coaches, counselors, youth pastors, juvenile justice staff, daycare providers and others who have, love or work with children/youth. It is an action-based program that involves reading and writing assignments as outlined in “When Children Grieve.” HCWL is a 4-session program, for a total of ten hours, developed to be presented in both small group and one/one formats, both in person or online. The four sessions in the HCWL program are based on the GRM model. These sessions include 1) discussion of the old, ineffective ways we’ve learned to grieve; 2) learning how to recognize the impact of grief in children’s lives and how to be a more active listener; 3) learning to identify sources of emotional energy children experience around grief events; and 4) identifying appropriate ways to give voice to important discoveries about the grief they experience. At every step the grieving child is respected, listened to and heard without judgement or analysis. They are supported in identifying and giving voice to the emotions they experience. The tools provided can be used throughout their lifetime, to address other losses, and to help more quickly address new losses.
