Direct a widowed parent to support created specifically for parenting after the death of a spouse or partner.
For funeral care teams, social workers, counselors, and community professionals
A trusted next step for the parent who must grieve and keep parenting.
Raising Them Without You offers gentle, practical resources that can stand alongside the care you already provide to grieving families.
Support designed for the surviving parent.
Many resources help children understand grief. Raising Them Without You focuses on the parent carrying two enormous responsibilities at once: living through their own loss while helping their children feel safe, supported, and understood.
This is not counseling or a replacement for professional care. It is compassionate, practical support for the decisions, routines, conversations, and daily responsibilities that continue after a death.
