Have you experienced loss lately? Could you use some support as you grieve? Do you feel ill-equipped to support others through their grief?
We have partnered with social worker and grief expert Cara Grosset to provide some additional training and support in this area. Cara was vital in the development of the MyGrief.ca module on supporting someone with intellectual disabilities in grief. You can learn more about her and these sessions by following the links below.
