Grief Is Everywhere. Let’s Talk About It.
Understanding Grief: A Foundational Training for Building a Grief-Informed Culture

Grief isn’t just about death—and it isn’t just a clinical concern. It shows up in lost roles, fractured identities, moral injury, changes in health, and ruptured relationships. Grief affects how people think, feel, connect, work, and lead—making it a system-wide concern.

This foundational training introduces the core principles of grief-informed care, equipping professionals at all levels with the tools to recognize and respond to grief in themselves, their clients, and their organizations.

Participants will explore how grief manifests across seven domains of functioning—cognitive, emotional, physical, social, spiritual, family, and work—and how to distinguish grief from related conditions like PTSD, depression, and Prolonged Grief Disorder. The training also addresses a wide range of losses (both death and non-death) and types of grief, including disenfranchised, anticipatory, and traumatic grief.

Whether you’re a clinician, administrator, supervisor, or support staff, this session will help you:

• Identify signs and symptoms of grief across multiple domains

• Recognize at least five types of loss that impact clients and staff

• Differentiate grief from mental health diagnoses using a trauma-informed lens

• Apply at least three grief-informed practices in daily interactions

• Reflect on how grief influences team dynamics, policy decisions, and organizational culture

Let’s build a grief-informed workforce—where compassion, understanding, and psychological safety aren’t just values, but daily practices.
