At our Community Appreciation event back in December, we said we would host several presentations during 2026. Now it is 2026 and time is moving on, so we want to announce a workshop related to grief.
Grief is not only about when someone passes away, there are many different kinds of grief. Maybe you have a longterm friendship which has dissolved, or you are retiring from a job that you truly love. Those are kinds of grief. The workshop will dive deep into the topic, talking about how to recognize signs of grief, now to navigate those feelings, and what resources are available.
This workshop will be Saturday, May 2nd, from 10:00am–12:00pm here in Greensboro. The specific location and address is to be determined. You may be wondering who will provide the presentation and information for this session. We are excited to welcome Dr. Julianne Gold Brunson as the presenter. She is an expert with RHA Behavioral Health Services, and we're excited to learn from her about grief. We all have and will experience grief in our lives, so this is a very important topic.
Look for more information, about the specific location and RSVP process, to be released soon! If you're interested in attending this session, or have additional questions, please contact our office. Thanks for watching, and we hope that you are excited to come and learn at this workshop.

Check out this incredible workshop hosted by the NCRID Mid-State and Foothills Regions!
Presented by Frank Griffin and Sam Parker, this workshop will help show how knowledge of Deaf culture can impact your interpreting. Deaf culture has been passed down for centuries from one deaf person to another in an “oral tradition.” This oral tradition of sharing culture and language is the format and focus of this workshop. This ASL-only workshop explores how Deaf culture shapes interpretation and interaction within the Deaf community. Participants will analyze ASL stories to identify cultural nuances, enhancing both cultural competence and receptive ASL skills.
