We often find similarities in the experiences of individuals impacted by trauma and grief. Both trauma and grief can impact a person across a range of time and with varying intensity. They can both affect the surviving persons long term, even for a lifetime. And both trauma and grief can lead to profound feelings of loss and altered perspectives for those impacted. What are these connections between trauma and grief? Join this webinar as we explore the grief and loss experiences of trauma survivors. Learn how to provide care and support for youth and families by recognizing and understanding how grief and loss is often woven through their experience of trauma.
