SELAH Grief Conference

SELAH Grief Conference [A Community Healing Gathering for Collective Loss]

Grief in our communities is often carried quietly and without adequate space to process. The SELAH Grief Conference is a 4-hour healing-centered gathering designed for individuals and families impacted by community violence, sudden loss, and personal grief.

Rooted in the SELAH Model of Grieving, this conference moves beyond the traditional linear “stages of grief” and instead honors grief as fluid, relational, and cyclical. The SELAH framework invites participants to move through three states:

Pause [ Attuning to the body and emotions]

Reflect [Honoring the story and surrendering safely]

Meaning [Creating connection, purpose, and responsible action]

Through a liberation-focused and culturally responsive lens, this conference centers Black and Latino traditions of healing, storytelling, spirituality, and communal care.
