Carrying grief related to your own parenting journey can be an invisible and lonely experience. We want all parents to feel seen - even if your child is not with you today.

Honor your own grief by Tenmile Creek by creating a boat and releasing it downstream. A peaceful setting, healing water, and others who are (unfortunately) walking this journey.

*if you feel unsure whether you "fit" in this space or not, please feel free to reach out but please know you are welcome to join even if your experience feels a little different.

Today, June 14 anytime between 1-3 pm. See website for more info and map. ecchelena.org/events

We are so grateful for our community - you showed up and you held space for these incredible stories in such a beautiful way. Thank you to all.

To all our storytellers - thank you for sharing your words with us. It is so valuable and important.

MC, musicians, and all the individuals and organizations who made this happen - thank you! We could not have done this without each and every one of you. It was a true community event and we are so impressed by everyone's contribution. And, the The Myrna Loy was the perfect place (and team) to work with on this.

To everyone who was there in any capacity - take care of yourselves today - or reach for someone who can help you today. πŸ–€

Stay tuned for better photos and hopefully some videos!
