The Healing Broken Hearts conference is a not for profit event that brings people and resources together to connect and learn ways to advance healing.  The conference is designed to be shared by those on a bereavement journey as well as the important caregivers and professionals who support them; whether the loss of a loved one is anticipatory, recent, or long ago.

This two-day workshop will examine many aspects and needs of parental grief following the death of a child. Regardless of age and/or gestation, the death of a child tends to be a devastating experience for the parent(s), the surrounding family and the community at large. Navigating grief and heartbreak in a society that struggles with both mortality and emotional expression presents additional challenges for bereaved parents. We will examine parental grief following pre- and post-natal death, and death of a dependent child. Discussions will include the experience of disenfranchised grief. The workshop will provide participants with strategies for supporting the individual, couple and family (including siblings) following the death of a child.

Next webinar will occur September 15th, 2020
