Just For You

When you're grieving, everything can feel upside down. Sometimes it can help to talk, write, draw, or act out your feelings. Get some pencils, markers, or crayons and find a spot you feel comfortable. If you need help, want a hug/high-five, have questions, or just want to talk about it with someone, be sure to ask one of your adults!
