Presented by Hospice of North Idaho, the Grief in the Holidays Workshop offers a supportive space for those who are grieving to acknowledge how loss may affect their holiday season. This workshop helps attendees develop a plan for managing grief amidst holiday expectations, with an emphasis on self-care and a creative “plan B” if needed. The event will be held on Thursday, November 14, from 5 to 7pm, at Hospice of North Idaho’s Community Service Building. This is a free workshop, though registration is required.

My name is Jillian, and I have been an editor and writer here in Coeur d’Alene since 2006, during which time I’ve had the opportunity to work for nine publications across North Idaho, into Spokane and as far as Gig Harbor, Washington. I am grateful to have the opportunity to now focus all my attention, energy and passion on my local community, finding and sharing heartfelt stories, spotlighting the incredible people, showcasing local businesses, organizations and nonprofits, and of course highlighting the many wonderful events our area has to offer.
