SUMMARY:Write Your Heart Out: Self Expression to cope with grief\, loss\, trauma\, & stress Live Interactive Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The W.H.O. recently reported COVID-19 pandemic has caused a 25% increase in the prevalence of anxiety and depression worldwide and called for all countries to step up mental health services and support. Additionally\, the coronavirus and the public health measures designed to prevent its spread have been shown to have had a profound negative effect on many young people. Writing and poetry are powerful tools to help process and cope not only with COVID-19 effects\, but also for helping those dealing with grief\, loss\, trauma\, and stress management in general. Yet\, children\, teens\, and the adults in their lives often avoid writing because they think they aren’t a “good writer”. Attend this workshop to help them learn tools to overcome that negative self-talk barrier. Apply the research about free-form writing to help children and teens have a positive impact on healing and the immune system. In this interactive lecture/discussion\, experiential\, and personal reflection workshop\, we will explore and experience poetry and written activities. Caring professionals can use the activities to help families process their grief and trauma\, improve coping\, and prevent stress & burnout. \nThis playback is available to active NACG members only. \n \nMembers must be logged into the member portal to access the playback.

SUMMARY:Childhood Bereavement: Understanding Prevalence by Cause of Death Live Interactive Webinar
DESCRIPTION:View the slides HERE\nAccording to the 2022 Childhood Bereavement Estimation Model (CBEM) 7.7% of U.S. youth will experience the death of a sibling or parent before they reach age 18.  This is an underestimate\, as it excludes countless deaths of other significant figures in a child’s life.  A growing body of research indicates that the death of a significant attachment figure places children at increased risk for mental health\, relational\, behavioral\, and academic problems\, as well as earlier mortality. Recognized as an adverse childhood experience\, the impact of unaddressed childhood bereavement contributes to a litany of negative health outcomes as youth become adults. \nChildhood bereavement is best understood when contextualized within systems of care that impact the lives of children\, families\, and communities. Using the CBEM to analyze national data\, researchers at Judi’s House/JAG Institute developed bereavement estimates by various causes of death. Using national CBEM projected results\, this presentation will provide data on the percentage and number of children grieving due to deaths resulting from the five leading causes in the U.S. Presenters will review year-to-year trends in childhood bereavement\, highlighting the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on certain causes of death and provide a call to action. \nCE Total: 1.5\nTarget Audience: Counselors\, Social workers\, Bereavement support professionals\nInstructional Level: Intermediate\nFormat: Live Interactive Webinar \nObjectives:\nBy the end of this presentation\, participants will be able to: \n\nQuantify national differences in U.S. childhood bereavement rates based decedent’s cause of death.\nExplain year-to-year trends in childhood bereavement by causes of death most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.\nIdentify opportunities for collaboration and advocacy as well as implications for service provision and support for grieving children.\n\n  \nSpeaker Bios:\nLaura Landry\, PhD is the Director of Evaluation and Research at Judi’s House/JAG Institute. She has 15 years experience evaluating community-based programs and large-scale prevention initiatives\, as well as building the capacity of organizations to utilize data to drive decisions. In addition to heading the organization’s Childhood Bereavement Changemaker Initiative\, Laura oversees the Evaluation and Research Department. Her work focuses on evaluating Judi’s House services\, building evaluation/data utilization capacity in the field\, and disseminating the prevalence of childhood bereavement to inform advocates and practitioners working in the field. \nMichaeleen (Micki) Burns\, PhD\, is the Chief Clinical Officer at Judi’s House/JAG Institute and adjunct faculty at the University of Colorado. JH/JAG is a comprehensive family bereavement center in Denver. A Licensed Psychologist with two decades of experience providing therapeutic assessment and support to families facing adversity\, Micki has witnessed the lasting impact of unaddressed grief. She is dedicated to ensuring appropriate care is available for all and raising childhood bereavement to a level of critical public importance. At JH/JAG she oversees the direct service\, research\, and training departments working towards a vision where no child is alone in grief. \n  \nCE Provider Information:\nEach professional is responsible for the individual requirements as stipulated by their licensing agency.
