December – Understanding the Experience of Grief

December is often a time for family and friends to come together. It is also a time where we often remember the people who should be at the table with us but are not. Grief is a journey that looks different for everyone, and there is no timeline for how to cope with the loss of a family member, friend, or loved one.

If you are looking for support in navigating grief during the holidays, our Understanding the Experience of Grief class can help. This class is available in both online and in-person formats, and the online class can be taken from anywhere in Alberta.

Understanding the Experience of Grief

Tuesday, December 2, 2025 | 2:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.

The following will be talked about during the class:

• What we know about grief, what grief and loss look like, and how it impacts your daily life
• Caring for yourself when grieving, and coping on special days, anniversaries, and holidays
• How to help someone who is grieving a loss
