💡Death Over Drafts at Lost Boy Cider
The founder of the Death Over Drafts movement, Stefanie Elkins, describes the goal as this: “Death over Drafts is a casual and fun community event to spark connection and is part of a growing movement to destigmatize important conversations on end-of-life.”
What to expect:
The event is free!
All are welcome!
You can still come if you don’t love beer, there are other snacks and drinks! ;)
This is a super supportive community, but we are not a support group.
In this communal environment, we remind you to be responsible for your own engagement.
At Death Over Drafts, the public can enjoy a fun conversation where death is not avoided. There’s no lecture, but questions will be answered. You never know who you will sit next to, very interesting fellow guests will be in our midst. We will also have a game called “Death Deck” on the table, a Death Over Drafts favorite activity!
Everyone dies, and talking about it won’t kill us.
Your hosts for the evening will DCDC supporting member Stephanie Dillemuth.
Lost Boy Cider, 317 Hooffs Run Dr, Alexandria, VA

Come as you are and be a part of this unique experience!
A Death Cafe is a space for open, honest conversation. Every death cafe is unique.

If you're able, bring a sweet or savory treat to share.

✨The Child in the Room: Bringing Comfort to Children Through Crisis
Hosted by Cryst’l Sheer (Summit Care Partners) and the Virginia End-of-Life Doula Collective. Free and open to the public.
Learn about supporting children in times of grief and loss through trauma-informed approaches.
When families face serious illness or the end of life, children can be overlooked. The Child in the Room explores childhood grief, anticipatory grief, and the many ways children express loss.
Participants will explore what children need—honesty, safety, choice, and connection—and learn a trauma-informed Notice → Support → Refer approach for recognizing when a child needs additional support.
The session also introduces expressive support and Mrs. Claus With A Cause as a resource for children experiencing crisis and loss.
See the child. Make room for the child.
About the Presenter:
Amy Herrmann, MSW, is the Founder and Executive Director of Mrs. Claus With A Cause, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to bringing comfort, connection, and moments of joy to children and families experiencing crisis.
With more than 20 years of experience working with children and families, Amy currently serves as a school social worker and has a professional background in family support, case management, and child advocacy. Her work has focused on helping children and families navigate trauma, illness, and other challenging circumstances.
Amy founded Mrs. Claus With A Cause on a simple belief: When a child’s world falls apart, we show up. What began with the comforting presence of Mrs. Claus has grown into a year-round mission providing pediatric comfort outreach, disaster response, comfort kits, and community support.
Amy holds a Master of Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University and a bachelor’s degree in Behavioral Science. She combines her professional experience in social work and child advocacy with the magic of Mrs. Claus to create meaningful moments of comfort and hope for children when they need it most.
