I’ve heard great things about this camp!

Attention school counselors / social workers and community members at large! We have an opportunity for you to be part of something transformative through our Path Finders Camp for grieving kids and teens in our community. Please consider volunteering your time to help move children forward in their grief and help them adapt to life after loss.

Great resource!

Children can have lots of thoughts and feelings about the people they care about. This worksheet helps children to connect with those thoughts and feelings by drawing a picture of the person they are missing. It might be someone who has died, someone they can’t spend time with, or someone they see a lot, but are missing in this moment. You can do this activity with one child or a whole group. Let them know they can write or draw their answers and that it’s okay to skip the ones they don’t want to do. You can also expand the conversation by asking them questions about their responses such as, “How do you think they’d answer your question?” “How do you feel when you think of this person?”

Grief during the holidays can be very hard. Here are just a few reminders to keep in mind through this season.

11/28/2024

For many Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday season. This time of year can be difficult after a loss. It is okay to talk about loved ones, share stories, share their favorite side dish etc. We carry on their legacy by doing such things. Please know that although this time may be difficult you are seen and cared for. Grief is love in disguise and you my friend are enough.

What signs do you see when loved ones are near?

11/06/2024

Here in the United States we find ourselves the day after Election Day. Whichever side of the debate you were for there was, inevitably, going to be a lot of people very sad and scared today.
You may find yourself tearful, angry, in disbelief etc. Many people are scared and many people are grieving right now. They are grieving the loss of trust in their community members, in their friends, in their family member. Many people are grieving the loss of trust in the US or in "the system". You may be grieving the loss of a friendship, the loss of the life you thought you'd live, the life you thought kids would live.
If you are already grieving a loss than this compounded grief and emotional strain may feel extra heavy.
Your feelings are valid. You are allowed to feel your feelings. It is okay to feel scared, nervous, sad, angry, and even happy.
As always and especially today remember to give yourself grace and take care of yourself.
Be gentle with yourself and be gentle with your community. We are all humans with emotions.
Please if you are struggling reach out to your support system. If you find yourself needing help contact an agency near you or call 911.
