Description

Substance use disorder is an equal opportunity disease. It affects all genders, races, ethnicities, and socio-economic statuses.

Amy Joyner discusses grieving a child who has not died and finding meaning in the five stages of grief.

Learner Objectives

  1. To educate participants on the complex nature of grief and substance use disorder. 
  2. To explore the five stages of grief and understand the emotional experience of a grieving mother.
