Coping with grief is subject of Hope for the Holidays workshop

Posted

The festive holiday season can be challenging for those grieving the death of a loved one especially during a pandemic. They find themselves torn between the need to grieve and pressure to get into the holiday spirit. Some traditions this year will be different and many activities will be limited, changed and may not occur at all based on limitation of travel and safety concerns.

Community Hospice & Palliative Care is offering Hope for the Holidays. This workshop will help attendees learn ways to cope with grief during the holiday season, determine what is right for them and their families and refocus energy on positive activities that honor and remember their loved ones. This workshop will acknowledge the changes and limitations but also work on alternative activities and meaningful ways to be with family and friends that may include virtual activities.
