Hospice Services offers a variety of support groups for those who have had a recent loss, ranging to those who are further along in their grief journey.

Programs:

• Understanding Your Loss - 12 week program which allows participants to experience support from others who are also grieving. This curriculum-based program encourages discussion and personal reflection in order to begin the journey of moving forward through grief while exploring ways to cope with life following the loss of a loved one.
  
• After Words - An open group for those who have completed the Understanding Your Loss program. After Words offers no-pressure support, companionship, and a safe space to discuss feelings, issues and concerns.
  
• No Time to Say Goodbye - Understanding the grief after a sudden loss is challenging and painful. This group offers a safe space to explore those feelings with others who have experienced a death by suicide, overdose or traumatic incident.
  
• Standing Together and Receiving Support (STARS) - We offer peer support for children (ages 6-12) and their parents or caregivers. Through activities and open discussion, participants will be able to connect with others who have experienced the death of a loved one. This program is offered via Zoom.
  
• Lending Library - Hospice Services has an extensive collection of books and videos covering a wide range of topics for all age groups, including children and teens. Such subjects include living with cancer, coping with grief and caring for a loved one. Our library items are available for clients and caregivers to borrow and take home or sit in our lovely library and read in a quiet place.
