What I couldn’t fix
The author shares the passing of his mother. If he learned anything, it's this: He won't always be the one with answers. He won't be the one who fixes things, and that doesn't make him less of a doctor. In these moments, it's not about clinical roles or medical algorithms. It's about showing up -- as the son, the daughter, the sibling. Grief is slow, dirty, and obstinate. And when it arrives, it doesn't care about the number of degrees you hold or the number of lives you've affected. It just leaves you bare, confused, human.

When grief arrives
When Grief Arrives is a narrative therapy and oral history project aimed at re-storying narratives of grief and loss within queer, trans and Black, Indigenous and people of colour communities. The project documents multi-storied accounts of grief that resist the individualisation and isolation of grieving that is common under settler colonialism and capitalism. By honouring overlooked landscapes of experience, the project seeks to generate solidarity and interconnection through shared knowledges. This article discusses the project’s methodology, ethical considerations, and the transformative potential of collective storytelling in fostering solidarity and healing within marginalised communities.

IMPLEMENTING GRIEF SERVICES FOR OLDER ADULTS: TRANSLATING SURVEY FINDINGS INTO TARGETED PROGRAMMING
Abstract
This presentation will identify and describe the team’s ongoing efforts in actuating the Implementation phase of the EPIS Framework. Evidence-based strategies include formulating a multidisciplinary implementation team, organizing purveyor and intermediary support, and developing a Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) plan. We will highlight the ways in which survey findings were disseminated to the general public and organizational leaders, such as presenting result summaries at city council meetings and in local newspaper articles. The challenges of negotiating survey findings into cohesive program implementation will be discussed, as well as management strategies towards age-related gaps in the implementation process that had not been identified previously. Recent program launches and the ways in which survey results directly informed their delivery will also be reviewed, namely, a free educational guest-speaker event for which over 700 community members attended and a grief-support holiday vigil hosted at a local long-term care facility. This presentation will also review considerations for the project’s next steps as it continues to hone its program delivery parameters and eventually enters into the last EPIS phase, Sustainment. Specific foci will include deciding the long-term methods of quality assurance evaluation and program adaptations to revolving community bereavement needs.
