Moderated support groups for family members
Alongside the children's bereavement groups, moderated discussion groups for family members are offered in a separate location. This allows caregivers to remain accessible to the children during the bereavement groups. At the same time, the discussion groups provide a safe space for sharing feelings, experiences, and problems, listening to one another, and offering mutual support. These 90-minute groups, like the children's bereavement groups, meet every two weeks at a fixed time .
