Programs
We Believe...
- Grief is a normal reaction to death
- The duration and intensity of grief are unique to each person
- Everyone has a natural capacity to heal
The Community Grief Center is not a counseling center. We are a companioning center. Anyone who comes to the Center with what is clinically known as “complicated grief” will be referred to our other community partners/resources outside the center for help.
We offer various grief support services and groups for people of all ages. Click on any of the titles below for more information. OR, click here to download a copy of our general information brochure.
