FamiliesConnect Online Workshops

Would you like to learn healthy coping skills within a community of people affected by workplace tragedy? Attend an upcoming Threads of Life online FamiliesConnect workshop.

Online community for people affected by workplace tragedy

FamiliesConnect online workshops offer practical information and tips tailored to coping with a life-altering workplace injury, occupational disease, or workplace fatality. You’ll learn skills and gain insights from others who understand, and have the opportunity to share your thoughts and experiences. Each workshop is a safe, confidential space to connect with a supportive community.

What to expect at FamiliesConnect online workshops

Format

Available workshops are led virtually on Zoom by a grief counsellor, Threads of Life staff member, or skilled volunteer.

Topics

Each month, we feature a different topic that supports hope, healing, and ways to cope (see the list below). Choose the topic(s) that suit you.

Cost and access

Thanks to the support of Threads of Life partners and funders, workshops are offered at no charge and available no matter where in Canada you live. All you need to participate is a computer with a camera and microphone.

I felt a great sense of release from a lot of tension, just from the short exercise we did. It also made me feel I belonged as before I felt on the outside looking in.
