Although Widowed Persons Outreach provides help for those who are widowed, this October 19th, the 2011 conference is open to everyone!
You may be a professional or helping a friend or family member through loss and want to deepen your skills and understanding. Or you yourself may be experiencing a loss. Whatever your situation, this conference will give you comfort and hope.
Bestselling author Dr. Ann Kaiser Stearns brings a powerful message to those dealing with the pain of a loss. When a loved one dies, a marriage or important relationship ends, a financial or health crisis occurs, or even a dream is shattered, you still have a choice in how to live, says Dr. Stearns. With her inspirational insight and helpful healing strategies, you’ll discover how you can move beyond the harsh and painful events that have occurred, grow stronger, and still live a fulfilling life.

Dr. Stearns has written as wonderful book. Two of the appeals for my partner and I were
1. the way it made grief part of the process of living and growing and 2. the practical advise for moving beyond grief when it is the right time. There really can be life after a loss.
