The Weekly Session is a family-based bereavement support group that provides support and grief education. This winter we will meet on 6 consecutive Tuesday evenings from 6:15pm – 7:30pm. Children are in groups with similar aged peers and the adults gather together to learn how to support the children. We intend to hold this program in-person.
There is no cost to participate in Buddy’s Place however program registration is required and then complete the Weekly Session registration form – click here. Additional information on Buddy’s Place can be found at on the Buddy’s Place webpage. Please contact Michelle Halm with any questions.
