Children and Grief
Total Behavior Management workshops are designed for all school personnel.
Participants walk away with hundreds of
practical, "best practice" strategies that are easily implemented and based on current research.
There comes a time in everyone’s life when we are confronted with loss and grief. This is especially difficult for those who must help the grieving process for children. This “Children and Grief” workshop is a must for teachers, parents and service providers who work and live with children.
Participants will examine their own issues with regard to loss, develop an understanding of the human grief process, and learn strategies for helping children through this personal journey. In this multi-media workshop, we will answer the question, "What do I say now?"
