Building on the topics covered in the "Helping the Grieving Child" course, this program is designed for both caregivers and their children aged eight and older. It aims to engage participants in understanding and processing feelings through journaling, writing, and art-making exercises, all within a safe space for self-expression. Caregivers and children are encouraged to attend together; children must attend with an adult.
