Understanding Loss Experienced by Youth in Foster Care

The losses children and youth in foster care experience are varied and multi-faceted. Loss of family, friends, schools, homes, and what they have come to know as normal present unique challenges for them and for those who work with and support them. This training will explore those non-death losses and the impact on their psychological and emotional wellbeing. Different types of grief and loss will also be explored and how to distinguish them from losses caused by death. Strategies to support youth who experience loss will be explored.
