We're heading to Chestermere on Sunday May 5 for an afternoon kids' grief peer support workshop!
For more details and to register, please go to:
Bernie's Buddies Workshops offer a peer support environment where youth connect with other youth who've experienced a death loss of an important person in their lives. They participate together in a therapy dog visit, yoga exercise movement and mindfulness, and creative grief conversation. Our goal is to help kids find community and feel less alone while navigating their bereavement.
**Please note the death does not have to be recent - it also does not have to be a relative. Children and youth often have people who are not family in their lives who have made a significant impact and their loss can be equally profound.
Parents and caregivers are encouraged to visit with each other or take this time for themselves to practice self-care while their children are participating in the workshops.
**THANKS TO GENEROUS DONORS AND SUPPORTERS, OUR WORKSHOPS ARE FREE**
