Coping with Grief & Loss
February 22, 2021 @ 6-7:30 PM
with Allyson Drake
Join SPAN in a conversation about the journey through grief. We will talk about healthy ways to process loss and grieve, both the loss of loved ones and the loss of important rituals and events, during the COVID-19 epidemic. You will learn about a variety of resources to help children, adults, and families navigate the grief process.
