This training will focus on creative and innovative strategies for supporting grieving students. Educators, school counselors, and other adults working with kids are often hesitant and scared to broach the topic of grief with their students. However, over 7.3% of children experience the death of a parent or sibling by the age of 18 (Burns et al., 2020). According to the Judith Ann Griese (JAG) institute, one in twelve U.S. children will experience the death of a parent or sibling by age 18. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought increased attention to the impact of childhood bereavement. More than one million COVID-19 deaths in the United States include parents, grandparents, and other caregivers for children (Treglia et al., 2023).Consequently, this training will focus on ways to better equip and empower those working in school settings to feel more empowered to support the grieving students they interact with. Though this training is geared towards individuals working in school settings, the interventions and ideas shared in this session can be adapted and easily integrated in diverse clinical settings.
