Please join WTTW and the Crown Family School of Social Work, Policy, and Practice, for a special screening and discussion of Independent Lens’ Camp Widow, a moving documentary that examines how resilience and community are built in the aftermath of widowhood and loss.

The film offers an intimate look at Soaring Spirits International (SSI) and its Camp Widow program, which connects widowed people around the world, supports them in rebuilding their lives, and fosters lasting community after loss.

Following the film, stay for a panel discussion featuring Michel Neff Hernandez, Filmmaker and CEO, Soaring Spirits International; Amy Schiller, PhD, Crown Family School Lecturer; and Jim Spelman, Chicago-based artist whose personal story of loss is featured in the film. 

This event is free, but RSVP is required.
