Preparing Children for Funerals and Memorials (90 minute recorded webinar)

Having the opportunity to attend funerals and memorials plays an important role in a child’s grief process, yet many adults are unsure about whether to include children, and if so how to prepare them. This webinar is co-presented by Mishi Methven, who is both a funeral director and a bereaved parent. While the webinar will touch on current literature on the topic, the main focus will be on practical strategies for preparing and supporting children through such events. This webinar is designed for parents and other caregivers as well as funeral service workers, counsellors, health care providers, volunteers, and anyone else who is supporting a grieving child.
