Creative Support for Grieving Kids - Holiday Webinar

Creative Support for Grieving Kids
Holiday Webinar

Date: December 11, 2025

Venue/City: Virtual Webinar

Audience: Child Life Specialists, social workers, educators, parents, community advocates

We maxed out for our webinar, with more than 100 people signed up to learn artful ways to help youth and families navigate loss this season. We were amazed at the turnout, which tells us of the many helpers in the world who want to help. Educators, social workers, parents, counselors, therapists, nurses, youth advocates, community volunteers, and Child Life Specialists joined to share, learn, and connect. Even someone from Qatar logged in!

Our hope is that the webinar inspired everyone to bring art and story into their work and presence this holiday season as they support others and themselves.

During the webinar, we reimagined a holiday tradition! The picture of the completed Memory Wreath was based on the sharing of the attendees. Every bunch of stems is wrapped with yarn to represent loved ones missed this season.
