Today is Children's Grief Awareness Day!
We at Uplift are fortunate to work with strong and resilient children intent on bringing joy and hope back to their lives.


Although our work looks different right now, Uplift is continuing to provide our vital services to children, families, schools, and community partners.
  • We're holding our grief support groups virtually for children in their homes and schools;
  • Supporting youth and their families on the Philly HopeLine;
  • Offering virtual crisis support as homicides in the City continue unabated;
  • Training professionals on how to best work with grieving and traumatized youth;
  • And providing resources for children and families in our community and around the country.
