Grief, Death, and Intersectionality

In this highly interactive, engaging, and informative 3-hour online workshop, PAUSE Executive Director and Founder, Alica Forneret, will cover how identity impacts the death, dying, and grief experience. Together, we will explore how race, culture, and other identity markers can influence the type of support providers can offer to their clients.

Attendees should be prepared to engage in individual exercises to examine their own identity and how it’s impacted their personal grief experience, as well as small group work and large group discussions to center storytelling and resourcing from community. Attendees will walk away with practical ideas for expanding their approach to making culturally-relevant referrals, as well as a customized list of grief resources by and for People of Color.
