FREE Understanding Grief & Supporting Those Who Grieve - EUGOWRA

Workshop Description: 

Grief is a natural response to loss, but navigating it—whether personally or as a support system for others—can be deeply challenging. This 2.5 hour workshop explores the emotional impact of grief, common grief reactions, and some practical strategies for self care and how to support someone who is grieving.

Participants will learn how to have meaningful conversations around grief (what to say/what not to say), recognize when further support may be beneficial and develop resilience in their own grief journey or while walking alongside someone who is grieving.

About This Workshop:

Grief is universal, yet deeply personal. Whether due to bereavement, life transitions, or unexpected loss, the grieving process can be complex and unpredictable. This workshop is designed to give individuals, caregivers, volunteers a basic understanding on supporting those who are grieving.

Through guided discussions participants will:

• Understand the different stages and types of grief.
• Learn how to offer meaningful support without unintentionally causing distress.
• Explore self-care strategies for both those grieving and those providing support.
• Gain practical communication tools to navigate grief-related conversations.

By the end of this workshop, attendees will feel more prepared to approach grief with empathy, sensitivity, and the knowledge to help others in their healing journey.
