If good grief has 1/2 the impact on children it has for adults making grief good is a right we all deserve. It is a great opportunity to open the mind to the freedom of facing tomorrow. Everyone deserves this peace.

too often the process is not validated and the walk not compketed after death. This is a great idea!

An awesome program initiative... Denise's passion and spirit in supporting people through grief as well as mentoring other ECE on how to help children in their programs in dealing with grief is essential to our communities! A wise investment we could make as a community!

Very thankful for PATCH and a huge need for it in London, Ontario. There is nothing available for grieving families at present!

I lost my wife, when I am gone I hope Denise will help my grandchildren understand that we are in a good place. It is so important for children to accept these moments, I don't believe that they should just accept that I'm gone. The experience should be one that makes a child want to have a new day. A good feeling that when their best friend or family member has passed on their Spirit will continue. I believe PATCH has all these qualities. Good luck Denise.

I listened to Denise in a program she developed when I lost my wife. I can see the time she puts into the little ones. She cares so much for them to have a good experience on this devastating issue, death. I would think if anyone would like to create bereavement a new way PATCH would be a perfect fit. Thanks Denise and hope your patch comes together.

I first met Denise when she was seeking additional support for a family who was part of the PATCH grief support group. I was impressed that she had taken additional time to ensure this family's needs were being met. I have been personally involved with PATCH ever since! I believe the need for this resource is essential to our communities. PATCH extends its services to the outlying communities as well.
