“I looked forward to the sessions and being able to share my thoughts and feelings while knowing that no one would be judgmental or unkind.”

Latoya, participant

Grief support groups can be a doorway to hope, even when hope might seem unimaginable.  They can bring comfort through the connection with others who have been through a similar loss and are confronting the resulting challenges and opportunities.  Participants can find support and encouragement through sharing their stories and knowing they are not alone.  

Our groups are facilitated by professional bereavement staff from BJC Hospice.  They are open to anyone in the community, not just those served by BJC Hospice, and they are offered at no cost due to generous individual and corporate donations from the communities we serve.

“This group changed my life. It brought new connections, friendships and a safe place to share my sorrow.”

These support groups provide:

  • An opportunity to be part of a community of grievers who have also lost a loved one
  • A safe space to share thoughts, feelings and experiences surrounding the loss
  • A place to breathe and normalize your experience of grief
  • Suggestions for coping tools and ways to care for yourself

“It is so helpful to have people to talk to who truly understand what I am going through”
