Helping Children Deal With Loss & Grief
It can be challenging for parents to talk with children about loss and grief. We include these resources in the hope that your family will find support and direction for tough conversations. During times of emotional distress or confusion about strong feelings, please do not hesitate to reach out to counselors and social workers who are on the staff in all our schools.
No one needs to suffer alone, and help is available. Professionals with Meridian Behavioral Services are ready to support any student in Transylvania County Schools by parent request.
