**Grief doesn't have an age limit, and its impact reaches far beyond the person experiencing it.**

This powerful session will explore how childhood grief impacts young people, families, and entire communities while providing compassionate, trauma-informed strategies to help adults recognize, understand, and respond to children experiencing loss.

**Sometimes the greatest support we can offer a grieving child isn't having all the answers. It's being present, patient, and understanding.**
