SUMMARY:Changes in Childhood Bereavement Prevalence in the Wake of the Pandemic: CBEM Key Topic Report 2023
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n \nClick here to download the slides →\nThe COVID-19 pandemic devastated public welfare worldwide\, bringing excess deaths and moving bereavement to the front page. Before the pandemic\, Childhood Bereavement Estimation Model (CBEM) prevalence rates reflected an annual average of more than 260\,000 children under 18 becoming newly bereaved due to a parent’s death. In 2021\, this number increased to more than 383\,000 – surging nearly 50%. While COVID-19 directly accounts for a portion of the increase\, other socially stigmatized causes also contributed\, including overdose and homicide. For example\, accidental drug overdose deaths have risen for the past two decades\, yet overdose deaths spiked more than 31% in 2020\, the first year of the pandemic. This trend continued in 2021 when the age-adjusted rate of overdose deaths increased by 14% compared to 2020. As a result\, 20% of the children who experienced their parent’s death in 2020 and 2021\, grieved an overdose death. This year’s CBEM Key Topic Report explores parent deaths due to COVID-19\, overdose\, homicide by gunfire\, and suicide—causes that may lead to feelings of isolation\, guilt\, and uncertainty in grieving families—highlighting the ongoing impact of the pandemic in 2021. This webinar will review these findings and suggest how childhood bereavement professionals can use the results to promote awareness and advance advocacy. \nTarget Audience: Counselors\, social workers\, bereavement support professionals\nInstructional Level: Intermediate – This best describes a topic or issue that the audience likely has a theoretical foundation for understanding and/or a working knowledge\nFormat: Live Interactive Webinar\nPlease note: CEs are not available for this webinar. \nCost: Free for all \n  \nObjectives:\nAfter attending this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nReport the increase in childhood bereavement prevalence due to parent death in the first two years of the pandemic compared to pre-pandemic averages.\nDistinguish the different types of CBEM results\, Projected\, Current\, and Snapshot.\nDiscuss annual changes in childhood bereavement prevalence rates due to parent death related to overdose\, homicide by gunshot\, suicide\, and COVID-19.\nUnderstand how to find and interpret the 2023 CBEM Key Topic Report to promote awareness and advance advocacy for the childhood bereavement field.\n\n  \nSpeaker Bios:\nLaura Landry\, PhD\, is the Director of Evaluation and Research at Judi’s House/JAG Institute. She has 16 years of experience evaluating community-based programs and large-scale prevention initiatives and building organizations’ capacity to utilize data to drive decisions. In addition to heading the organization’s Childhood Bereavement Changemaker Initiative\, Laura oversees the Evaluation and Research Department.
