The Centre for Living with Dying in Santa Clara is holding a workshop/support group to acknowledge the loss and build hope in the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake. It is designed for anyone affected by the trauma in Haiti, either directly or indirectly. All of us who watch the images of the devastation are impacted. Many people who have relatives, friends or associates directly connected to the earthquake and its aftermath.
This group is for you to give:
- An opportunity to acknowledge the trauma and normal reactions to stress
- Tools for survival and coping techniques
- A time to be in community with others
- An opportunity to begin building hope, healing and meaning
