The service should also look to support those CYPs who may not be directly bereaved; however, they may have witnessed a suicide, or are aware of a suicide. Specific Aims: - Support children and young people in developing coping strategies - Enable children and young people to understand their grief and/or emotional response - Promote resilience - Meaningful evaluation demonstrating outcomes Additional information: If you are interested in submitting a proposal for this service then please follow the return instructions within the document.
