About This Event

Supporting employees after a tragedy is often a difficult and complex. The feelings that arise can occur months after the actual tragedy and often involve grief, loss, and sometimes result in interpersonal violence. Often work can be a safe place for employees to seek support and understand the resources available to them.

This in-person presentation and panel discussion will focus on providing information and resources to help you support your employees through the delayed trauma they may be experiencing.

  • Monique Ibarra, Chief Executive Officer, Domestic Violence Action Center
  • Sanoe Kaaihue, Executive Director, Women Helping Women
  • Janet Domingo, RN, BSN, CCRN, Wailuku Clinic Manager, Kaiser Permanente

What we’ll cover:

  • Learn how to support the mental & emotional well-being of your staff.
  • Recognize stages of grief and the psychological phases of recovery.
  • Discover local community resources.

A light lunch and snacks will be provided.
