FA Connect | Navigating Living Losses: Understanding, Acknowledging, and Managing Change
Join Lori Krause for a workshop designed to explore and process “living losses”—non-death-related losses that arise from life transitions, changes, or unmet expectations. Examples of living losses include the loss of identity, health, relationships, careers, or abilities.

5:00- 6:30 pm Pacific Time
Spanish interpretation services are available upon request when registering for the session. Please note that while we will do our best to provide interpretation, we cannot guarantee their availability.
