An estimated 1 out of 13 children in the U.S. will experience the death of a parent or sibling before they reach the age of 18. 7.7% – 5.6 million youth will be bereaved by age 18, and the number more than doubles by age 25, to 13.9 million. Childhood bereavement is a prevalent and critical public health issue that can have a profound impact on future well-being. (JAG Institute 2022)
