Disenfranchised Loss: Addressing the Needs of Pet Loss Grief Support
September 25, 2024 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm PDT
Session Resources
Part of our Grief & Bereavement Literacy ECHO series
Pet loss can evoke profound grief, yet this disenfranchised loss offers inadequate recognition and support in comparison to traditional grief support frameworks. This session aims to shed light on the unique challenges of pet loss grief and the importance of nurturing partnerships between grief professionals to build on this support. We will also hear from individuals with lived experienced. Session participants will have the opportunity to ask question and engage with the presenters. Poster you can print and share linked here.
Presenter: Pam Bilusack, Executive Director at BC Bereavement Helpline/ BC Victims of Homicide
This series is for anyone interested in increasing their knowledge around grief and bereavement to support them personally or in their professional careers.
