Her bestselling collection of Dear Sugar Columns, Tiny Beautiful Things, was adapted for Hulu. Cheryl’s books have sold more than five million copies around the world.
Focus on Hope will also include a panel conversation with Dougy Center participants who will share how they express their grief through art.
Hear their stories and learn how you can make an impact for families our community and beyond.
