Training Description
Since the beginning of civilization, people have practiced rituals as a way to process and release the emotions related to loss. This training offers an educational presentation about the power of rituals to connect us to our agency, resilience, and one another as we integrate loss into living and help system involved youth to do so as well. Participants will be informed through presenter instruction, a slide presentation, and small group processing. This training also offers instruction on specific ritual practices which can be used to support system involved youth who are processing loss, as well as ritual practices for helping those who support system involved youth to release vicarious grief.
