The coronavirus’ impact on our communities, families and world has been enormous. Nearly everyone has experienced a loss due to COVID-19, including changes in how we interact or loss of a job or sense of security. For those who are grieving a death-loss, whether from the virus or other causes, the layers of grief can feel endless. Many have been restricted from seeing loved ones in their last days or unable to gather with friends and family to mourn together and offer each other comfort.
This informative evening will offer ways we can support and help ourselves and others in coping with our grief. The cost of the workshop is $10.
To register, call 888-501-7077 or emailing griefinfo@chesapeakelifecenter.org.

Living with Loss: Changing Identity and Coping with Parent Loss (Telehealth Workshop)
2020-05-26 18:00 - 20:00 | MD
“Living with Loss: Changing Identity and Coping with Parent Loss,” which was originally planned to take place on Chesapeake Life Center’s Pasadena campus, will most likely be offered online via a telehealth platform.
With Mother’s Day and Father’s Day dotting the spring calendar, those experiencing parental loss are faced with often painful reminders of what is lost and a search for what remains. When a parent dies, there are often layers of loss – the loss of a home, loss of connection with the past, loss of being “known”, or the loss of the expectation that someday the relationship might have changed. Sometimes the “natural order of things” does not bring comfort. Whether you are grieving the loss of a parent or someone who was like a parent, wherever you are in your grief process, whatever the relationship, you are welcome. This session will be held via telehealth from 6 to 8 p.m. May 26. Should stay at home restrictions be lifted by May 10, there is a possibility the event will occur in-person at our Pasadena location. The cost of the workshop is $10.

From Inequity Awareness to Social Action: Disrupting Disenfranchisement and Suffocated Grief in Marginalized Children and Adults

This lecture will address historical and contemporary ways in which youth and families coping with loss experiences from various marginalized social locations (race, ethnicity, sex, socioeconomic status, age) are faced with inequities and suffocated grief in their journey of healing. Drawing from research and case studies, it will describe socially just and culturally conscientious practices that facilitate the disruption of systemic factors that complicate grief, mourning, and coping processes for children and teens across cultural contexts (e.g., schools, hospitals).
The Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners certifies that this program meets the criteria for 3.0 credit hours of Category 1 continuing education for Social Workers in Maryland.
