Resources for Bereaved Children
Supporting a child through bereavement can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate at times. Embrace FARM have created resources for children grieving the death of a loved one.
Recommended reading while supporting a bereaved child
After a child has lost a parent, sibling, grandparent, aunt/uncle, or another significant person in their life, it can be overwhelming to talk about death and figure out the best support for your child.
We have compiled a list of books for children who are grieving to help them talk about their grief and the feelings with that loss.
