The Dougy Center shares a new resource for grieving teens: Deconstruction / Reconstruction, A Grief Journal.

Filled with engaging designs, creative writing, drawing, painting, and activity prompts, Reconstruction gives teens a variety of ways to explore and transform their grief.

With that in mind, this journal was designed in a way that allows teens to go at their own pace and in whatever order works for them. With engaging designs, creative art, and an easy-going, free of judgment approach, Deconstruction/Reconstruction is a unique self-expression opportunity for teens grieving a death.

Grief doesn’t follow any rules or keep to a schedule. Mess it up, keep it pretty, deconstruct, reconstruct - it's up to the teen!
