Resources for Teen still mourning loss of mom

Jumpship · December 2019

In my professional and personal life I seem to have a number of teen young ladies who lost their moms when they were between 12 and 17. While every loss is different I'm looking for some resources for these gals. One is stuck in grief. Overwhelmed in grief and longing for mom. Worried for dad. In my own process of grieving my father's decline in health I was a regular at "Pray for Daisy" website and during my treatments I was following Kara Tippets with her long goodbye. Any ideas?

Maybe a retreat or camp for children whose parents have passed?

I think in the long run yes

Dear Jumpship,

The National Alliance for Grieving Children provides resources for bereavement support for teens and children as does the Dougy Center National Center for Grieving Children and Families. BCO has posed a link to resources for teens who are worried about cancer as well as information about how to talk to teens about breast cancer. We hope some of this might be helpful.
