Supporting Young People

Young people are particularly vulnerable to grief due to their developing emotional regulation skills, which can make processing intense feelings of loss challenging. Additionally, the critical period of identity formation, potential lack of strong social support, and increased risk of mental health issues exacerbate their vulnerability during times of grief.

This initiative aims to equip young people skills to become death literate. They have an evidence-based grief education program, publications and a school curriculum. 

This page provides information on grief and provides strategies on coping with it.
