Speaking Grief, a multi-platform, public media initiative working to create a more grief-aware society, invites you to attend a free webinar “Minimizing Burnout in Death Care Professionals” on Tuesday, May 24 at 6 p.m. ET. 

Death care and other caretaking professions are facing unprecedented levels of burnout as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic – and burnout can impede our ability to offer kindness and compassion to others. These workers carry an enormous responsibility: for many, funeral directors are their first entry into grief and loss and the experience with making arrangements can set the tone for a person’s grief journey. In this webinar, experts will identify warning signs of compassion fatigue and offer strategies for balancing empathy with self-care.
