About the book
Our intention with this book is to create a space for us to pause, to reflect, to be in community. To give space to the very human interactions that stay with us, the ones that keep us up at night, that push us, challenge us and at times change who we are as clinicians and human beings. To express gratitude for lessons received, to mourn lives lost, to acknowledge where we may have been complicit, to see each other and those we show up to support through the door of humanity. All without judgement.
Edited by Terry Altilio, Anne Kelemen, Vickie Leff, Arika Patneaude

Revitalize and Restore 10 Hour Workshop
Hospice and palliative care social work has grown immensely over the past 10 years. A Second Edition of the Textbook for Palliative Social Work, published in 2022 reflects changes and challenges and honors the unique and essential contributions of social work. At the same time unprecedented challenges in our work and world have left many demoralized and disheartened. This intensive workshop will focus on replenishing the meaning in our practice, reaffirming, and introducing skills toward the goal of revitalizing your commitment and passion for the work we share.
