In 2018, the Hollywood Homeless Youth Partnership produced A Tragedy Response Protocol – a document to guide our collaborative work and support young people in the aftermath of the death of a young person in our service community. The COVID -19 pandemic prompted a review and update of our protocol in 3 ways: 1) To expand the protocol to address community events, like pandemics; 2) To reduce the reliance on in-person communications and ceremonies around loss; 3) To elevate the parallel process of grief between staff and youth.
