Virtual Grief Counseling Opportunity August 17

When experiencing the death of a colleague it is common for people to have a wide range of emotional and physical reactions of varying intensity.

To provide you with support we have scheduled a critical incident group debrief being made available campus wide.

During the debrief, you and your colleagues will meet for about an hour with a trained responder who is a licensed mental health clinician. The responder will facilitate discussion and provide resiliency strategies. Participation is voluntary.

The debrief will be held via Zoom on Wednesday, 8/17/2022, from 1:00 – 2:00pm with Kris Clancy, licensed mental health clinician. Join Zoom Meeting at:
