A childrens book for families to support a grieving child<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, IIKELC has received many requests for a resource to support families in talking to their children about suicide. In response to these requests, we have created a children’s book called “Talking to Children About Suicide” that follows the story of a child attempting to understand and process this type of loss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This book is also a companion to the IIKELC workshop “How to Talk to Children about Suicide<\/a><\/em>“. The workshop describes how children are affected by grief and what families and friends can do to support a grieving child<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that this book is not for a child to read alone. It is for parents, caregivers, or professional caregivers to read with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hope this resource can help families navigate these difficult conversations. Please know that you are not alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talking to Children About Suicide is available in Inuktitut, English, Inuinnaqtun and French; you can request it by emailing embracelife@inuusiq.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
