Talk Description
In this session, the first known Peer Group for people who have lost a parent to fatal domestic violence will share our story of coming together after years of living without the opportunity to connect with others who’ve had similar experiences. Using creativity and storytelling, we will talk about what knowing each other has meant in our lives. We will share examples of how we use advocacy, activism, research, art, and professional practice to challenge the imposed isolation, silence and taboos around homicide and grief, and invite you to be part of this work to create safe, caring, just and inclusive communities for everyone.\
