About the event

Welcome to our online peer support group dedicated to destigmatizing grief and shame. This safe and inclusive virtual space is specifically designed for youth and young adults (18+) who have experienced the profound impact of grief and/or shame of parents substance use. We understand that these emotions can be challenging and isolating, but through shared experiences and compassionate discussions, we aim to provide support, understanding, and healing.

This session is co-facilitated by a peer who has personal experience with the grief caused by parents' substance use and the loss of a parent to a toxic drug supply. Their lived experience adds a unique perspective and empathy to the support group, fostering a deeper understanding and connection among participants.

Who it's for:

This online support group is open to youth and young adults aged 18 and above who have experienced grief and/or shame related to a parent's substance use.

In the spirit of respect, reciprocity and truth, we honour and acknowledge Moh’kinsstis, and the traditional Treaty 7 territory and oral practices of the Blackfoot confederacy: Siksika, Kainai, Piikani, as well as the Îyâxe Nakoda and Tsuut’ina nations. We acknowledge that this territory is home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3 within the historical Northwest Métis homeland. We acknowledge all Nations – Indigenous and non – who live, work and play on this land, and who honour and celebrate this territory. Finally, we remain committed to continue to learn about the truth regarding Colonialism and residential schools in Canada, and will actively work towards reconciliation while advocating for our government to do so as well.
