Conversations with Li is a one-woman dialogue based on her award-winning book that illustrates the challenges a caregiver faces and the need for humor and creativity to persevere. Elinor Fuchs, a professor of drama at Yale University and author of Making an Exit, shares details of how years of working in the theater taught her about caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s.
The Conference will consist of a 30 minute documentary developed by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) called “Family Journeys: Healing and Hope after a Suicide,” a chance to connect with other survivors in a small and confidential setting and an opportunity to share your personal experience and talk about your loved one. The event will be facilitated by a suicide loss survivor.
Registration is required. To register or to get more information, please either call or email Debbie at 978-327-6671.
