Children's Grief Awareness Day
Why raise awareness for grieving kids and teens?
​
Many people don’t realize that it takes most children much longer to deal with their grief than we expect and that the amount of inner turmoil, invisible to most, is much more intense than we have any idea of. We raise awareness so that people will realize that even if there is no outward sign of inner turmoil, those storms can still be raging inside a grieving child’s heart.
We raise awareness so that people will understand that a grieving child can't just "get over it"—not in any set time period, not by any act of their own will—and that there's no reason that they should just "get over it."
We raise awareness in order to help people learn ways they might help a grieving child they happen to know, now or in the future.

International Day Of Peace
On September 21st, we celebrated the International Day of Peace with stories, activities, and the beautiful tradition of folding paper cranes—symbols of hope and peace around the world.
If you weren’t able to join us, you can still take part at home by learning how to fold your very own origami crane! All you need is a square sheet of paper and a little patience.
