For Adults
TAPS Survivor Seminars provide an opportunity to join together with survivors for a powerful time of support, care and hope. These conferences provide you with a wealth of information, resources and personal contact with fellow survivors in a spirit of friendship and understanding. You can attend workshops designed to help you heal and cope with life after loss. We have gentle, supportive discussions allowing you to share and discover that you are not alone. We travel to special events and conduct memorial tributes, allowing us to honor our loved ones as we connect with others to find hope and healing. Join us as we ‘Remember the Love, Celebrate the Life and Share the Journey!’

Become a Peer Mentor
TAPS will also be conducting a day of Peer Mentor Training for those who are at least 18 months beyond their own loss and are ready to be there for others and offer support. We have a day of training on Sunday, after the Seminar. You will learn more about grief and trauma, gain basic helping skills and become part of our TAPS Peer Mentor Team! All those attending the training must take an online training course prior to attending classroom training. You can register for the Peer Mentor training as part of the general registration. For more information concerning Peer Mentor training, contact Kellie@taps.org.
