Saturday, September 21st, 2024
10-11:30am

Join us for this special poetry-centered
workshop based on her book, Being There for Someone in Grief

This kicks off our 2024 Poetry & Loss Series

Every day we encounter people who are struggling because something or someone significant in their life is gone. In a culture that has often taught us to bypass or ignore our grief, navigating these situations does not always come naturally.

In this 2-hour class Marianna Cacciatore will use poetry and teachings from her book, Being There for Someone in Grief, to help us acknowledge the many losses encountered in everyday life, and become more present when we find ourselves in the territory of grief.

We must learn it.

Marianna Cacciatore

In 1988, Marianna founded Children to Children—a Center for Children and Families in Grief which has brought healing to thousands of children and adults in Tucson, Arizona. 

She started her tenure in 1998 as Executive Director of Bread for the Journeya national philanthropic organization dedicated to grass-roots, neighborhood giving, founded by author, therapist and minister, Wayne Muller. From just a single chapter in Santa Fe, NM, it grew to become a national organization with affiliate chapters throughout the United States that have given away over 3 million dollars.

Being There for Someone in Grief, her first book, contains essential lessons for supporting people grieving from death, loss, and trauma. Her second book, Reinvesting in Life—The Infinite Journey from Grief to Generosity & Love, is about the final task of grief. It expands the scope of grief and suffering to show how our losses can deepen our capacity for love.
