Grief Education Series

WinterSpring Grief Education series is a 28 hour Grief and Loss Education training and is scheduled for Spring, 2008. Schedule and fees to be announced.

The classes are designed for anyone who encounters grieving people in the course of work or personal life, and wants to learn more about how to help. Teachers, caregivers, social service providers, chemical dependency counselors and medical professionals enhance their professional skills with grief and loss education.

The series is required for people who want to help grieving children, teens and adults by volunteering at WinterSpring Center. Volunteers who assist facilitators will gain experience in the group process. People who want to work directly with bereaved people on an individual basis will witness the positive difference such support can make in a person's life. Classes include Issues of Death and Dying; Bereavement; Child and Teen Grief; Communication Skills; Laughter and Play Therapy; and Personal Growth Opportunities.
