Virtual Event Virtual Event
Free

During this presentation, we will discuss what grief looks like in youth with special needs and the consequent losses they experience after someone close to them dies. Caregivers will gain tools and strategies to assist their children in processing their grief and cope with hard emotions. We will review current best practices supporting grieving children with special needs and discuss how Kate’s Club has expanded to be more accessible to the families supporting them.

Presented by: Ashlie Evans

While working at Kate’s Club, she created the Half-day Clubhouse program to address the growing need for grief support for youth with special needs. Her favorite part about Kate’s Club is watching sad, angry, and resistant kids leave smiling and hopeful knowing they are not alone in their grief.
