Adventures Through Grief: the Journey So far
Saturday January 25, 2025 11:30am - 12:20pm EST
Utilizing Therapeutically Applied Role Playing games in a grief setting
Adventures Through Grief is a grief-specific, Therapeutically Applied Role-Playing Game group designed to support adolescents and young adults experiencing bereavement. This group uses tabletop role-playing games (like Dungeons & Dragons) in a play-based group format to create a safe and engaging environment for participants to build community and process their experiences. Blue Ridge Hospice has seen amazing results with our own groups, and received a grant to expand the implementation of these groups to eight grief centers across the US (including training and funding for each participating site). In this session we will share an overview of what the groups have been like at BRH, the reason we chose this approach and what we have learned in training others for expansion.
