So exciting to be part of this project with the Mind Body Training Institute!

FREE TRAINING: How Meaning-Making & IFS Can Uncover the Hidden Layers of Grief

Grief is rarely just about the loss itself.

A client's grief can be shaped by attachment history, past trauma, identity, and what the loss means to them.

These deeper layers aren't always obvious, but understanding them can make an important difference in therapy.

In this free training, A Meaning-Making & IFS Approach to Grief, grief expert Lara Krawchuk, MSW, explores how these two approaches can help therapists
uncover the deeper layers of loss and support clients in their healing.

Registration expires on November 24, 2026.

Get out and vote-because it matter to your life!

Before you vote, consider the widow. You. ✔️
Consider the widow who:
• loses half her household income, and a Social Security check, overnight
• is nearly 3x as likely as a married woman to live in poverty
• gets a $255 death benefit that hasn’t changed since 1954
• loses her health insurance when her spouse’s job ends with their life
• pays more for car insurance simply because she’s no longer married
• lands in a new tax bracket before her grief feels fully understood
• has to choose between childcare and rent
• is targeted by scammers because she’s alone

Consider survivor benefits that allow dignity, an end to the penalty for remarrying before 60 (55 for military survivors), affordable health care, grief and mental health support, fair insurance, bereavement leave, safe housing, and programs that feed families and protect our elders.

Consider which leaders see and show up for the widow. Who mentions the widow. Who responded to your emails or calls.

Widowhood will touch nearly every U.S. family.

Yet widows often vote *less* after their spouse dies, at the very moment their voices matter most.

We are a constituency. Policy only moves when widows are counted and voices heard.

Please vote, and take another widow with you. All generations involved.

*Widows are one of the most overlooked voting groups in America, and they could swing elections. There are about 11.6 million widows compared to roughly 3 million widowers. Single and divorced women already turn out at higher rates than men, and married voters are close to even. But widows are the exception. A 2014 study of nearly 6 million voters found that widowed people vote about 9 points less after losing a spouse, often because of isolation. That's an enormous, untapped voice. It's why we encourage widows to stay engaged, vote, and take part in the decisions that affect their lives.

A day of healing for anyone living through a su***de loss.

💜 International Survivors of Su***de Loss Day

No one should have to navigate the loss of a loved one to su***de alone.

On Saturday, November 21st, the Chester County Su***de Prevention Partnership (CCSPP), in partnership with the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention (AFSP), invites you to join us for International Survivors of Su***de Loss Day.

This gathering is an opportunity to connect with others who understand the impact of su***de loss, remember the people who will always hold a place in our lives, and find support in community. We recognize that everyone's experience with grief is different, and there is no right or wrong way to navigate it. Whether you wish to share your story, listen, remember, or simply be present, you are welcome here.

We hope you will join us for a day of connection, understanding, and support. You do not have to walk this journey alone.

📅 Date: Saturday, November 21, 2026
🕒 Time: 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
📍 Location: Westminster Presbyterian Church - 10 W Pleasant Grove Rd, West Chester, PA 19382

We look forward to coming together as a community to honor our loved ones and remind one another that support, understanding, and connection are always important. 💜

I love this. A therapist sees their client and sometimes “wierd “ is actually brilliant!
