About This Course

Grief is the response to experiencing a major loss and can have profound impacts on a person. The loss of a loved one can feel like a tragedy, feelings of devastation and immense pain. The loss of a loved one from a substance use disorder can complicate and add nuances to those feelings of grief.

This training will offer supportive information and techniques for someone grieving themselves or those supporting someone grieving.
