The holidays can be a very difficult time for children who have suffered the loss of someone close to them. Myra’s Kids Foundation has recently published a Grief Journal designed to support children as they navigate through the holiday period and beyond. For your copy of the Grief Journal, simply make a donation on our website myraskids.ca and in the message section of the donate page, request a copy of the journal in English or in French.
