Drop-In Grief, Loss & Life Transitions Support Group
An open support group for anyone navigating grief, loss, or major life transitions. Each session is self-contained — you don't need to commit to the full series. Because spots are limited and each session includes a brief check-in process, you'll need to register before each session you plan to attend, and plan to arrive by 5:30 pm for check-in before the 6:00 pm start.
