Other Grief Support Groups
One of the least addressed concerns in our society is grief, the normal and natural reaction to loss. Each griever has a story to tell and a narrative that needs to be told and heard. The story is more than “just the facts." The story is about how we interpret the facts and how we live with those facts.
Please join us for sharing and discussion.
