BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT GROUPS

Spring 2012

Support Groups enable individuals to learn more about the grief
process in a supportive, sharing and safe environment.  During
groups we will discuss daily challenges, the grief process, healing
memories, the emotions of grief, building support, changed roles,
taking care of yourself, and the building of new relationships as
you head towards a meaningful life.
