Young grief is raw, intense, and chaotically enmeshed with finding a path into adulthood. RAW exposes the intimate journey of a new adult grappling with the loss of her mother and primary anchor in life as she steps into adulthood. The disorientation of young loss is real. This autobiographical narrative combines expressive arts with tools and insights for moving through the shock, aimlessness, despair, and resurfacing required before one can say "yes" to life again. Most young people haven't had enough life experience yet to draw on their own emotional coping skills, confidence that they'll get through this, and clarity of how to proceed. The book offers young people language to various experiences of grief and aims to help them process it, as well as offering advice and requests for others supporting them from a young adult's perspective.
