ONLINE - Recognition and Resilience: Grief and the Loss of Traditions During the Pandemic
It is important to recognize the absence or interruption of traditional customs and rituals, both celebratory and grief-oriented, during the pandemic. If you have experienced loss over the past year, including:
- Cancelled in-person holiday gatherings with friends & families
- Remote schooling & not being able to walk at graduation
- Closure of your business
- Separation from your spouse
- Selling your dairy herd and/or farm
- Loss of a loved one during the pandemic -- whether due to Covid-19 or not
please join Outreach Workers from Project Recovery for a presentation on grief recognition & resilience, with discussion to follow. This discussion is intended to acknowledge what was lost, to embrace closure, and to reclaim and re-imagine the rites and ritual that help us make sense of our lives.
