Who Are We
Founded in October 2024, the Brandon Rivera Memorial Grief Foundation is dedicated to supporting children and families navigating grief after the loss of a loved one. We serve children experiencing loss through death, a terminally ill caregiver, foster care placement, or the absence of a caregiver due to incarceration.
Through peer support groups, educational resources, and community outreach, we create safe spaces where children can process their experiences, build connections, and begin to heal. Our goal is to ensure that no child has to navigate grief alone.
What We Do
Peer Support Groups
Our peer support groups provide a safe, supportive space where children and families can come together to process grief, share experiences, and build connection. While each child’s experience is unique, we believe healing happens in community—where no one feels alone.
We support children and families experiencing grief related to the death of a loved one, a terminally ill caregiver, foster care placement, or the absence of a caregiver due to incarceration.
Through shared experiences and guided support, we help children develop coping skills, build resilience, and find comfort in knowing others understand what they are going through.
