Ways to connect to your grief recovery journey
The Hope Circle, online and live
The HOPE CIRCLE is an open-share group for individuals who have experienced the loss of a family member or friend. The purpose of this Circle is to offer participants a safe place to share their experiences of pain, strength, and hope. The session will provide a discussion topic and allow time for Q&A on any grief-related issues. A trained facilitator leads the Circle. Participants are welcome to drop in at any time to share or just to listen. Watch for special topics for specific losses: loss of a parent, a child, overdose death, Covid widow/widower.
