  1. How is Good Grief Helping Grieving Children, Teens, and Families Heal and Rebuild? (Special Podcasthon) Irene Weinberg 1:20:35

Have you ever heard of a Podcastthon? It is a coordinated effort where many podcasters dedicate one episode of their show to a charity of their choice, which raises awareness for that charity and amplifies causes that matter. This Grief and Rebirth Podcast episode is dedicated to an important grief support organization close to Irene’s heart that she feels many in the Grief and Rebirth community will want to know about, called Good Grief.

Good Grief helps children, teens, and families navigate the complexities of loss and build resilience by providing compassionate support and creating spaces where they can share their grief experiences and learn from one another. Its programs include support groups, educational workshops, and community events, all aimed at helping children, teens, and families adapt and rebuild their lives after experiencing loss.

Representing Good Grief for this very special Grief and Rebirth interview are Pam Sullivan, the Head of Family Centers at Good Grief, and Dr. Mrittaka Sen, the Head of Research and Evaluation at Good Grief, who share how Good Grief helps grieving children and families, the training provided for the professionals and caregivers who support the grieving children, the ways Good Grief works with other grief organizations throughout the USA, and so much more. Be sure to tune in to learn about this important, inspiring, and life-changing organization called Good Grief!

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE:

  • Pam and Mrittika’s personal journeys with grief
  • How many children Good Grief serve every year
  • How long most kids attend the Good Grief groups
  • Good Grief also meets the needs of neuro-diverse participants
  • Activities and themes to facilitate expression and coping
  • Training provided for adults who facilitate the support groups

SOME QUESTIONS IRENE ASKS PAM AND MRITTIKA:

  • Mrittika, how was your son’s life transformed by Good Grief?
  • Are bereaved parents also welcomed into the Nights of Support?
  • What are some of the special enrichment events Good Grief provides for families?
