Supporting a loved one’s mental health issues can feel isolating and overwhelming, from the practical challenges of finding support to the constant fear for a loved one’s physical well-being. Authors Meg Kissinger and Tripp Friedler understand this battle first-hand, having lost beloved family members to suicide in journeys they have bravely shared in powerful memoirs. Please join members of your community as Meg and Tripp share their experiences and offer their perspectives on finding help and gathering a community of support. The discussion will be moderated by Renee Dominguez, PhD, clinical psychologist and executive director of Family Service Center.

This powerful session will take place Tuesday, January 21 at 7 pm in the sanctuary at Kenilworth Union Church. The one-hour presentation will be followed by fellowship and the opportunity to learn about local agencies that provide mental health support.

Meg’s memoir is titled While You Were Out, and Tripp’s is The Tunnel. The Book Stall will be on hand to sell copies after the discussion, which the authors will be happy to inscribe if desired.
