Overview: Death, Dying, and Grief

Death, Dying and Grief

It is not uncommon to wonder how we ourselves can cope with death, but where do we even begin to help others through the process?

It is not easy to speak about death and the losses we experience, but it is a reality that happens to everyone. How does one cope? There may be a tendency to deny what has happened, stay busy with life and avoid all the feelings that might overwhelm us or perhaps we minimize the impact of the loss upon us. This program of study will enable the participants to understand the process of grief and dying and learn of resources that will enable them to positively engage in the grieving process and develop skills to assist others in their journey through loss and grief.
