ILMF Outreach Program produces and distributes literature and other materials (videos, games, etc) for use by children, adults and organizations to provide an understanding of, and assist children with, the grieving process. These materials are distributed to those in need through schools, hospitals, funeral homes, community centers, insurance agent’s offices, children’s organizations, and through the ILMF website. Since sensitivity, understanding and communication are vital, the Information Outreach materials for adults include tips on appropriate and helpful things to say and do when interacting with children who have had one or both parents die. New materials are continuously under development. [MATERIALS]
