Spouse/Life Partner Support Group: A weekly opportunity to be with others who are on the unique journey of grief because their life mate has died. “Who am I apart from my spouse?’ “How do I navigate all of the legal matters?” “I don’t think my friends understand this loss.” Meets Thursday mornings from 11:00 a.m. to noon.
S.O.S. (Survivors of Suicide) Support group: A support group for those whose loved ones have died by suicide. Meets the first Monday of each month at Full Circle from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. This group is made possible by generous funding from Nancy and Carlton Sheets.
Life 201 is a 7-week group for individuals who have taken our Grief 101 group or are at least 1 year out from the death of their loved one. The current group is in session until March 14, meeting on Thursdays, 6pm – 7:30pm. Registration is required, and group participants do have to join in the 1st or 2nd week. Life 201 will discuss next steps, explore self-discovery following the death of a loved one, address various aspects of life now, and learn new ways to heal. The next Life 201 session will be announced at a later date.
Camp Aloha Children’s Grief Camp: A weekend camp designed to help children ages 6-17 deal with loss; held at Camp Ebenezer over the first weekend each May. Pre-registration is required. Camp Aloha is made possible by generous funding from Southern Motors.
