Hello All!


I pray that this month's newsletter finds you all well and your family safe and accounted for in the wake of Helene. I have seen the good work that our members have been doing to support those in WNC. Rest assured that your board is actively looking into the best way to aid in relief as an organization as well.


Please also be thinking of what your business can donate to the auction at our Christmas Dinner in December. We will be contacting you soon!


Lastly, please go check out our new website. It is up and working well, but we will be making some adjustments soon including an online payment option for dues, etc.


I look forward to seeing you all on October 15th! 



Blessings,




Sharon McGee

In this virtual, interactive conference, Dr. Laurel Hilliker, PhD, FT (Fellow in Thanatology), will address personal and professional experiences of transformative grief, focusing on what helps and what derails the journey. She will examine current discourse in both the scholarly research and the general public regarding the transformative nature of grieving a loss. This assessment will include the impact of different factors on the process of transformation and lead into an overview of different types of transformation, including cognitive, normative and existential aspects. Lastly, Dr. Hilliker will explore a new concept [Grief-ism] for consideration as a creative approach for support purposes that offers fresh insights on grief literacy. Learn more and register TODAY!
