DETAILS: Some days are especially painful after the death of a loved one. This free seminar helps people who are grieving discover practical and meaningful ways to cope during the holidays - a time that can often intensify feelings of loneliness and isolation. Many of these coping strategies are also helpful when celebrating other personal holidays throughout the year, such as birthdays and anniversaries. In addition, those supporting someone who has experienced a loss can benefit from the information provided in this seminar.
Facilitated by trained hospice staff, the Providence Hospice Community Care seminars offer simple and effective tools that help people turn their compassion into action.
Space is limited and registration is suggested. For more information or to register for this free seminar call Anne Kister at 503-215-4636.
