Grief Support Group “Loss, Healing, and Hope”

In partnership with the Brian Dagle Foundation

Meets the 4th Monday of the month beginning March 25th at 10:30a.m.

“Confusion, guilt, and the ever present “why” are common responses to loss of a loved one- on top of the isolation that many experience due to social stigma. This peer-led support group will provide a safe space where members can explore
their grief and share their stories with those who ‘get it’. In addition, we will hold fast to hope – the expectation of good that is yet to be.” Call 860-441-6785 to register
