Trenton Veterans Memorial Library: Proudly Serving the Communities of Brownstown, Grosse Ile, Trenton, and Woodhaven, Michigan.

Healing Kits Collection

Healing Kits inspired from the Healing Library are designed to help guide you through the healing process after a traumatic event. They are most suited for children ages 2-10 with guidance from a parent/caregiver.

The Healing Library is a series of kits designed to make a family's journey of healing following a trauma easier to navigate and personalize.

Each kit contains topical books, therapeutic activities, and a binder with supplemental reading materials including: discussion guides, activities guides, acts of kindness guides & community helpers guides.

Kits are intended for use by parents/caregivers with their children. Materials are geared toward children ages 2-10. Healing Kits may be placed on hold with Trenton Veterans Memorial Library as the pickup location.

While grief is a universally shared experience, each person and family will have unique ways of navigating and managing their loss. The Healing Library cannot undo the loss or trauma a family has experienced, but we hope it can serve as a tool within a wider network of support and that it can start a family’s path to healing.
