They can also meet other young people in the same situation. Youth participate in activities where they can express their grief in creative ways. The association also offers personalized follow-up in the form of home visits or referral to an appropriate therapeutic follow-up.
This mutual aid service, which complements the support of the child’s family, is completely free of charge.
Trauerwee is run by volunteers. The help service is available in several languages (French, English, German, Portuguese, Luxembourgish and Scandinavian). Trauerwee is a great help to young people who have lost a loved one.
