FAMILY LIVES ON FOUNDATION'S MISSION IS TO SUPPORT THE LIFELONG EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING OF CHILDREN WHOSE MOTHER OR FATHER HAS DIED. THE DEATH OF A PARENT IS ONE OF THE MOST TRAUMATIC LIFE EVENTS A CHILD CAN EXPERIENCE. MORE THAN TWO MILLION CHILDREN AND TEENS IN THE US ARE GRIEVING THE DEATHS OF THEIR MOM OR DAD. FAMILY LIVES ON FOUNDATION'S GROUNDBREAKING TRADITION PROGRAM ADDRESSES THREE CRITICAL, AND OFTENTIMES UNMET, NEEDS IN CHILD AND FAMILY BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT. GRIEVING FAMILIES NEED INTRA-FAMILY CONNECTION AND COMMUNICATION, ONGOING SUPPORT, AND CONTINUING EMOTIONAL BOND WITH THEIR DECEASED PARENT. THE TRADITION PROGRAM PROVIDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTENTIONAL REMEMBERING, A SAFE HAVEN FOR GRIEF, COMMUNICATION AND CELEBRATION.

THE TRADITION PROGRAM IS GROUNDED IN RESEARCH AND SUPPORTS A NUMBER OF CLINICALLY IDENTIFIED NEEDS IN BEREAVED CHILDREN. IT IS A THERAPEUTIC TOOL, ALLOWING THE RITUAL OF THE TRADITION TO PROVIDE STRUCTURE AND ROUTE TO THE CHAOS OF LIFE IMPAIRED BY LOSS. ENGAGING IN A RITUAL ASSISTS WITH MITIGATING GRIEF AND CAN HELP RESTORE FEELINGS OF CONTROL. THE TRADITION PROGRAM IS FAMILY-BASED RATHER THAN SUPPORT GROUP ORIENTED AND IS DIRECTED BY THE CHILD - TRULY DESIGNED TO BE CHILD-FOCUSED. TRADITIONS ENCOURAGE CHILDREN TO MAINTAIN A CONTINUING AND EMOTIONAL CONNECTION WITH THE PARENT WHO HAS DIED, PROVIDING FOR A MORE NATURAL CONTEXT TO TALK ABOUT THE PERSON WHO HAS DIED. THE PRACTICE OF THE TRADITION FOSTERS RESILIENCY AND POST-TRAUMATIC GROWTH AND ENGAGES THE CHILD ACTIVELY IN A NON-THREATENING, COMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT TO HELP MOVE A CHILD THROUGH GRIEF INTO HEALING. THE AVERAGE CHILD REMAINS IN THE PROGRAM FOR 7 YEARS, SO THE LONGEVITY AND CONTINUITY NURTURES AND SUSTAINS FAMILY CONNECTIONS THROUGHOUT THE CHILD'S DEVELOPMENT, ASSISTING THEM TO ADAPT TO THE DEATH OF THEIR PARENT. TRAINED VOLUNTEERS WORK WITH CHILDREN TO IDENTIFY A TRADITION THEY SHARED WITH THEIR MOTHER OR FATHER, AND THAT THEY WANT TO CONTINUE. VOLUNTEERS ENGAGE THE CHILD AND FAMILY IN A CHILD-FOCUSED MANNER. EACH ELIGIBLE CHILD, INCLUDING MULTIPLE SIBLINGS IN A SINGLE FAMILY, IS ENCOURAGED TO ARTICULATE HIS OR HER OWN TRADITION. CURRENTLY SERVED CHILDREN HAVE CHOSEN ACTIVITIES SUCH AS GOING TO THE ZOO, MOVIE THEATER OR TO VISIT GRANDMA, BAKING COOKIES, MUFFINS AND CAKES, BAKE-TO-SCHOOL SHOPPING, AND PLANTING FLOWERS. FAMILY LIVES ON THEN PROVIDES THE LOGISTICS AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES FOR THE FAMILY AND CHILD'S ANNUAL PARTICIPATION IN THE REQUESTED TRADITION EACH YEAR UNTIL THE CHILD REACHES THE AGE OF 18.
