Good Grief: The 10 Steps Film
Nearly 10 years ago Good Grief Network started in Salt Lake City. We had a dedicated team of volunteers who helped us breathe life into the initiative to have a brave space to come together to face the hard realities of our time. We are forever grateful for how our community helped us birth GGN and as we continue to grow and celebrate nearly a decade of this work, we know Utah will always be its first home.
For those reasons, we are beyond excited to announce that in cooperation with the University of Utah, Red Lab, and Natural History Museum of Utah, Good Grief Network will be hosting a screening of the film "Good Grief: The 10 Steps."
As GGN founders, Aimee Lewis Reau and I will be there in person, joined by the film's director, Katie Flint. We'll engage in a question/comment/reflection session after the screening followed by a resilience-building workshop.
