Although each person grieves at his or her own pace\, most survivors find that it takes at least two years after their loss before they are ready to share their story publicly. \nSuicide loss survivors who are interested in this workshop may apply by completing this online form. \nWorkshop Dates \nThe November 2024 workshop will be conducted as a hybrid workshop\, with two sessions online and one session in-person: \n\nMonday\, Nov 4 ONLINE from 5:30 – 8:30 pm\nThursday\, Nov 7 ONLINE from 5:30 – 8:30 pm\nOptional: ONLINE Story Writing Support (date and time to be determined based on group needs)\nSaturday\, Nov 16 IN-PERSON workshop in Glencoe 9:00 am – 4:00 pm URL:https://www.2bcontinued.org/event/survivor-voices-sharing-the-story-of-suicide-loss/2024-11-04/ LOCATION:2B CONTINUED Office\, 305 7th St E\, Glencoe\, MN\, 55336\, United States CATEGORIES:Education ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.2bcontinued.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Screenshot-2024-10-09-at-10.52.36 PM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20241102T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20241102T110000 DTSTAMP:20260411T090316 CREATED:20240429T213454Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240429T213454Z UID:10000152-1730538000-1730545200@www.2bcontinued.org SUMMARY:2024 #LIVIN QPR Trainings DESCRIPTION:Click here to register!

Story Portrait participants are guided through the workshop with a series of questions as they develop their collage/story portrait. \nParticipants will also receive a copy of the Suicide Survivor Club’s (SSC) award-winning five-book set\, written by SSC founder\, Becky Anderson and her family\, that showcases the healing power of visual narrative as an expression and tool that helped them cope and move through their lived trauma as survivors of their husband/father’s death by suicide. The book set is ideal as a healing tool for oneself\, with a therapist\, or in a support group. \nThe Story Portrait Workshop is a free event for suicide loss survivors and for professionals working with suicide loss survivors. \nHelped funded by the Southwest Minnesota Arts Council.
