The National Alliance for Grieving Children promotes awareness of the needs of children and teens grieving a death and provides education and resources for anyone who wants to support them.

Because all grieving children deserve a chance to heal.

The NAGC is a non-profit organization that heightens awareness of the needs  of grieving children, and connects resources with individuals and organizations  serving the needs of grieving children, teens and families. By providing a central clearinghouse for program services and available resources in the field,  the NAGC serves all who want to support grieving children.

The NAGC evolved from conversations between leaders in the field of children’s grief who have met annually at The National Symposium for Children’s Grief since 1997. In seeking to continue the networking, sharing of information and support year-round, the Alliance was founded in 2004 with its goal of raising public awareness of the needs of grieving children, connecting those who are raising, supporting and/or working with children, teens and families after a death, and to provide resources and referrals.

Please join hundreds of practioners from around the country, as we head to Houston, Texas.   We will come together to learn from each other, hear from experts in the field and see "best practices".  It is a great opportunity for practioners to come together and share their experiences in a field we all feel so passionate about.  We are thankful that Bo's Place in Houston is hosting this important symposium.
