Note: We suggest waiting at least a year after experiencing the death of someone you hold dear before beginning volunteering with Rooted.

Rooted: Grieving & Growing Together (formerly known as The Landing) is a program for young people and their caregivers to connect with their grief, spend time with other people who get it, and maybe even have some fun!

There are a variety of ways to get involved with the Rooted program. Attending one of our volunteer training events is required for all potential volunteers. This evening class is designed to acquaint you with the Rooted: Grieving & Growing Together program and learn about volunteering. This evening session covers:

  • The spirit and mission behind Rooted
  • How grief is experienced at different ages
  • Personal relationships to grief
  • Volunteer expectations and guidelines
  • Group facilitation practice
