The first week of December is National Grief Awareness Week, a time to acknowledge those who have experienced loss, help raise awareness about grief nationwide and offer support and resources. SAMHSA is hosting two informational webinars with experts in the field of bereavement.

This webinar will highlight the social, cultural, and community perspectives of grief and raise awareness about the differences, yet similarities of this human experience.
