Supporting the child in care with their grief and loss

Date: Thursday 19 June

Time: 10.00am – 11.30am

Location: Zoom online

The goal of this webinar is to equip kinship, foster and permanent carers with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to support children and young people in their care who navigate complex feelings of grief and loss. This includes understanding the child or young person’s unique experiences of loss, fostering emotional security, and providing strategies to help them process and cope with their emotions in a healthy way.

As with all other Carer Kafe training, we ask that you have your camera on to fully participate in the session, and that you reach out to Carer Kafe and/or Griefline at any time after, if the session triggers strong emotions or memories in you.

The session is designed for kinship, foster and permanent carers.
