EPCALM joins the world in observing September as the World Leukemia Awareness month (WLAM). EPCALM is spearheading this awareness campaign for leukemia and its multi-faceted concerns from the physical, financial emotional or psycho-social and spiritual aspects. During the celebration, EPCALM will conduct various fund-raising activities to generate funds for the Foundation.

c. Understanding Grief Seminar Series

 

EPCALM, which aims to provide personalized, practical and family-oriented 

support for patients journeying through leukemia, acknowledges that grief is

a universal experience. Recognizing the need to deepen both the understanding
and management of grief across various sectors of society, EPCALM has

designed a comprehensive, yet focused seminar—“Understanding Grief:

The Healing Journey" (A Grief Management Conference).

Grief is an internal experience of thoughts and feelings brought about

by physical loss and or death.

 

The Conference-Workshops seeks to capture and better understand

real-life grief experiences of Filipinos, to create a deeper awareness of

what they go through. It endeavors to come up with insights on contributory factors

that lead to grief, and more importantly, present some techniques and intervention

strategies that participants can utilize to facilitate self-recovery, healing and
empowering those undergoing grief.
