New Journey-Hospice of the Western Reserve

Community Support Groups and Activities Except where noted, support groups will continue to be offered in a virtual format. All groups require advance registration, and the number of participants is limited. Participants of inperson groups will be asked to maintain distance and to wear a face covering within the meeting space. Virtual groups will be offered via Microsoft Teams. For more information or to register for a group, please call or email the facilitator listed for that group. Grief support groups provide:

• A safe place to express emotions

• A place to “tell your story”

• Education about grief and loss

• Normalization and validation of your grief experience

• Opportunities to learn new roles, ways to problem-solve and cope with situations

• New friendships

• A chance to laugh

For adults of any age who have experienced the death of a spouse, partner or significant other.
