Good Grief – Youth Bereavement Peer Support Program

British Columbia
Spring 2024

Parkgate Society’s Good Grief program tackles the challenges young people face when dealing with loss. It aims to create a safe space for open conversations about death, dying, grief, and mental health. This peer support program is designed for youth aged 10-18 and facilitated by trained bereavement specialists. Through group discussions, activities, and experience sharing, Good Grief empowers young people to dismantle stigmas surrounding grief, explore healthy coping mechanisms, and connect with others who understand their struggles.
