GCGT Workshop | When Families are Grieving: A conversation on navigating grief

This session is specially designed to support families with young children and youth, who are grieving the loss of a loved one from cancer. Losing one to cancer is a complex life-changing event, which many families are left to navigate together in a new profound way. Grief is not a linear event, nor are the coping styles and mechanisms of one individual family. The loss of a loved one may create a shift in family dynamics, and what worked one day for families, may now have been adapted and changed within the family unit.

We invite Parents, Guardians and adult family members who care for children under the age of 18, to connect and share with one another, what works best for their individual family as they navigate their world of grief and begin healing.

We are a diverse and multicultural community; however, we share a common bond of experiencing a significant loss from cancer. Please join us for a conversation around diverse families, how they process their grief and share with others tools that are helpful for your family in navigating your grief as a family.

Please note this session is open to families who are navigating the death of a loved one from cancer.
