Death happens unexpectedly and to everyone, lets learn to talk about it. Join Jim Cubbage, Wild Grief trip leader and others…

How do you talk to kids about death? Author Caroline Wright wondered the same thing when she was diagnosed with an aggressive, terminal brain cancer as a mother to her young sons. Now, having lived a year past her prognosis and written a children’s book to help children know the undying love of a parent, Caroline joins us at Town Hall with a mission to help other parents find hope and agency with similar diagnoses. Wright is joined by a panel of leading experts in the fields of children’s bereavement and cancer to discuss the complicated issue of what to say to our kids to comfort them when facing loss. They outline strategies for talking about tragedy with children, and highlight the importance of building community during times of loss. Wright offers us tools for helping our children navigate grief—tools which we can use to face tragedy in our own lives and overcome grief ourselves.
