School-Based Grief Groups
|
Children grieve somewhat differently than adults, so they benefit from the specialized support of a bereavement counselor skilled at working with children, and the opportunity to interact with other children who have experienced the death of a loved one. Sutter VNA & Hospice is offering to facilitate a grief education and support group at your site for students ages 6-12 years. Children may be referred to the group through school personnel, family, or the community. For more information, please contact Ellen Mundell, MA, PPSC, (707) 535-5780.
