Please note: The groups, workshops, and socials listed here reflect what we currently offer; this list is updated regularly. We are constantly assessing the needs of the community and creating groups or workshops based on those needs.

General Grief Support Group - DAY AND EVENING
1st and 3rd Thursdays, 2-3:30 pm (no group July 4th)
2nd and 4th Thursdays, 5-6:30 pm (no group November 28th)

This support group is an ongoing, drop-in group designed to provide support to individuals who have experienced the death of a loved one. Being with individuals who have had similar experiences and feelings allows sharing and healing to take place, and this group provides a safe place where group members can share their story and express their grief.

This is a drop in group; no need to pre-register. Please use NORTH entrance of building (front of building) for this event. There is a parking lot in the front of the building (Visitor Parking Lot).

Loss-Specific Support Group - DAY AND EVENING

We offer several loss-specific groups throughout the year, such as Loss of Spouse/Partner and Loss of Parent, which require pre-registration. These groups are usually held for an 8-week period, meeting weekly. Please call to register for a group you're interested in.
