SUPPORTING KIDDS

Supporting Kidds is the only nonprofit organization in Delaware devoted solely to supporting children who are grieving and their families. We believe that supporting this under served population with groups and individual counseling will help build resilience and the coping skills needed to adjust to their loss and look towards a positive future... The year 1989 marked our beginnings as a small grassroots organization offering children a safe place to understand their grief and successfully adapt to their changed lives. Modeled after the Dougy Center in Oregon, Supporting Kidds provided peer support groups for grieving children using leased and donated space in the local community... Our center has provided not only a safe place for grieving children and their families to participate in healing programs that bring hope for their future, it also serves as the central hub for our outreach programs that engage the community to support them in the grieving process.
