Workshops addressing various aspects of grief are held several times throughout the year. Each workshop provides participants with an understanding of the grieving process, skills to better manage grief and an opportunity to share experiences with others who are also grieving. All of our grief support programs are available to anyone in the community as well as the families of our hospice patients.
