Welcome to Khululeka Grief Support

Khululeka Grief Support focuses on bereavement support for bereaved children and adolescents. This support is provided through the delivery of two programmes: grief and loss support groups for children and adolescents; and adult training, on recognition and support of bereaved children and adolescents: for professionals, para-professionals and community volunteers in the South African child sector.

Did You Know?

Almost one-fifth of children in South Africa have lost a parent; many have experienced multiple losses. Bereaved children are at increased risk for psychological health problems including maladaptive grief and depression. Khululeka has developed an evidence based support group curriculum specifically for bereaved teen girls - it is freely available here.
