These two workshops may be taken individually or  together.  The first session will look at ways to help your children grieve and adjust to their new reality as well as “typical, age-appropriate responses” to changed family dynamics.  The second session will provide practical tips on how to create new families without sacrificing individual identity or old family ties. 

 A free dinner is offered at 5 pm and the workshops start at 5:45 pm.  Limited free childcare and transportation are available.  To reserve your spot, call Barb at 705-645-3027 x200.
