Family Program
The Cove specializes in helping children and
adolescents who are grieving the death of a significant person
in their lives. The Cove offers child-focused peer support
groups through a twenty session thematic program curriculum
delivered under the direction of licensed professionals and
trained volunteers. During these two hour, twice-monthly
sessions, grieving children learn healing and coping
strategies and creative communication that help validate their
feelings and guide them towards transforming their unresolved
grief.  Children's needs, as well as their understanding and
perception of the future, often do not incorporate the coping skills required to heal from loss. The result is often emotional and behavioral problems not easily recognized by family, friends, and professionals. At The Cove Family Program families learn to cope in new ways with peer support and professional facilitation.
