  • A check-in in which each participant will have a chance to speak to where they are at in their grief that day;
  • A 10-15 minute presentation on a topic intended to support you in your grief;
  • And a discussion of the topic and other predominant themes of the day.

Where: Online using Zoom platform (must have access to a device that can have a Zoom account and has a microphone and camera).

When: The sessions will be held Thursdays starting at 4:30 pm.
