When a parent dies, children experience more than grief: they feel like their whole world is threatened. They are shoved into a world where their sense of security is shattered, leaving them on high alert.

“Scout was five years old, her sister Willa only two when their mother Aja, died of cancer. She was an incredible mother and wife, and then, she was gone.

I was definitely ill equipped to deal with this new reality, but the National Centre for Childhood Grief (NCCG) provided a lifeline for my family. This specialised centre not only provided us essential counselling, it helped us find ‘people like us’.

Everyone responds to death differently. The NCCG tailors programs to meet the specific needs of every child – they also help people like me. Attending parent group sessions, I’ve found solace in not feeling alone.”
– Robb, Scout and Willa’s dad.


This tax time, your donation is vital in ensuring that the NCCG can continue to provide its services to families who have tragically lost a parent, child or other close loved one.
