Incorporating Culturally Spiritual Symbolic Practices with Latinx Communities Click here to register
Bereavement is a universal phenomenon that is experienced distinctively based on one’s cultural roots. Latinx people can be Hispanic, Latino or Spanish in origin and can identify with any race. As of July, 2016, Hispanics totaled nearly one fifth of the nation’s population, projected to grow to nearly 30 percent by 2060. This webinar will focus on the cultural grief expressions distinctive of the Latinx people. It will demonstrate how the increasingly influential concept of continuing bonds is evident in the purpose-filled life aspects of Latinx traditions, reviewing cultural beliefs about life and death. The webinar will highlight the rich Latinx cultural tradition of Día de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead), which is rooted in relationship, tradition, and sacredness, honors the dead, values life, and connects to symbolic displays of grief in the Latinx culture. The cultural, familial, spiritual, and religious dimensions of this tradition as well as its historical and cultural background will be highlighted, offering specific implications and recommendations for frontline grief professionals who work with the Latinx community.
This webinar will also draw on the Community Cultural Wealth (CCW) model to offer a cultural strengths perspective with the goal of supporting professionals in understanding and honoring the significance Día de Los Muertos among those Latinx people who practice this tradition. The CCW describes the contributions of marginalized communities in terms of their cultural knowledge, abilities, and contacts, emphasizing how these contributions often go unrecognized. By interconnecting the CCW practice context, the webinar will show how Culture rooted in relationship is at the center of a person’s development impacted by life, death and remembrance.
