Episode 5 – Aileac Deegan on navigating grief
Navigating the tumultuous sea of grief is a journey that necessitates empathy, understanding, and profound support, especially when dealing with children. On this podcast episode of “Aileac Deegan on Navigating Grief”, we delve into the transformative journey of Aileac Deegan, the CEO of Ryan’s Place, a children’s grief support center in Goshen. Aliyak’s story is not just about passion and dedication, but a life mission born out of personal experiences with grief and the identified lack of specialized support for grieving children.
Over the years, the significance and impact of Ryan’s Place have transcended beyond Goshen, touching lives regionally and serving as a blueprint for grief support nationally. With its unique approach of integrating volunteers’ deep-seated empathy and understanding of grief with professional social work, the center has become a pivotal resource during community tragedies. The journey not only highlights the power of community and dedicated support for grieving children but underscores the transformative effect of empathy and care navigates complex loss.
