Real World Issues & Concerns
Grief and Loss
Grief is a complicated and intense emotion. It often comes in waves and is rarely logical. People will often feel like they are going crazy, when, in fact, grief takes many different twists and turns. Sometimes, people need a little extra support to navigate the complexities that come with grief. Please reach out to your student’s counselor for support at school and explore the following resources for additional support.
