This presentation explores supporting families after more stigmatized deaths: those due to homicide, suicide, and drug overdose. Attendees will understand responses at different developmental stages, how to explain in age-appropriate language, how these types of losses can lead to feelings of increased isolation, and other current research related to this topic. Attendees will learn strategies for supporting individuals and families, including psychoeducational tools for understanding and processing these losses, as well as activities that can be done to support the individual or family.

*All participants should RSVP separately
