Empower Communities: Become a Companion in 2026

We’re excited to share that the 2026 training calendar for Seasons for Growth Companion Training is now live! The first half of the year is packed with opportunities for you—or someone in your community—to become part of this transformative program.

Seasons for Growth is an evidence-based program that helps children, young people, and adults understand and navigate change, loss, and grief. By training as a Companion, you’ll be equipped to walk alongside others during life’s challenging seasons, fostering resilience and hope.
