Shauna Janz is the executive director of Friends of Living and Learning Through Loss Society
Many of our youth come to THS having experienced a variety of types of loss. Part of the process of moving to self-reliance and self-worth on a practical level involves dealing with these personal issues. Working with Learning Through Loss, our youth workers are able to provide transitioning youth with the tools, mentorship, and community they need to process their grief.
Recently the Friends of Living and Learning Through Loss Society has received $3,300 in funding from the Victoria Foundation which will go towards community programs and youth education.
To find out more about this great organization and it’s valuable work in our community, read the recent Times Colonist interview with Learning Through Loss’s Executive Director, Shauna Janz.
