Exploring Grief in Schools in the Era of COVID with Maria Collins and Chelsea Prax The Widowed Parent Podcast

    • Mental Health

I had such a great discussion with Maria Collins of the New York Life Foundation and Chelsea Prax from the American Federation of Teachers for this episode. New York Life and the AFT recently teamed up to do a new survey about grief and grief support in schools in order to especially understand what the challenges are right now during this pandemic.
Some topics Maria and Chelsea and I discuss include:
Findings of the new survey on grief in schools from New York Life Foundation and the American Federation of Teachers; Some challenges and struggles teachers are seeing in their classrooms due to the pandemic; How parents can partner with their child’s teachers to help their child; Bereavement training for teachers available from the AFT; and Resources for parents and teachers from the New York Life Foundation. I hope you enjoy my discussion with Maria Collins and Chelsea Prax.
