Support Groups

Sometimes sharing your experience with others who are also coping with the loss of a loved one can help. Empathy helps us connect with others and grow from our pain. You are never alone in your journey through grief.

GriefShare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone. GriefShare seminars and support groups are led by people who understand what you are going through and want to help. You’ll gain access to valuable GriefShare resources to help you recover from your loss and look forward to rebuilding your life.
