In an effort to continue to organize my social work tool kit, I made a list of websites that I have found valuable to me or have been recommended to me to visit.

But don’t forget to check other pages in this site for resource information like video lists and specific resources for various mental health concerns. Check the Resource tab or Video Lists tab.

Printables for Clients and Families/Parents

Managing Grief

  • Our House (www.ourhouse-grief.org) Our House offers resources like trainings, books, and free information regarding grief and how to handle grief (ie what to say to someone who is grieving). They also have a summer program in LA for minors going through the grieving process.
  • Good Grief (www.good-grief.org) Good grief offers resources like trainings, books, a Ted Talk, and free information regarding grief. It seems that Good Grief can also come to a school to educate on the grieving process (and facilitate a grief group).
