What we do

Informing the CACG's objectives are the result from the 2018 survey completed by grief support workers across Canada.The survey results and data highlighted that many professionals in the field struggle to identify and access necessary resources in their work with children and youth; experience difficulty in connecting with colleagues doing similar work; and are unaware of the other grief support resources available in their communities, provinces and country.
