Grief Support Groups

Has someone died that is close to you? Would it help to share?

Please join Bay Center for support, understanding and acceptance through the grieving process.

Under the guidance of skilled facilitators, groups will allow participants to explore, within a “trusting, nurturing and confidential environment,” their reactions to loss, learn about the grieving process, develop strategies for coping and begin to integrate this change into their lives in order to move forward. Our groups are facilitated by licensed professionals, clergy members, or trained facilitators.

The program utilizes the book, Understanding Your Grief, Ten Essential Touchstones for Finding Hope and Healing Your Heart. There is no fee for participation in this program, however donations are welcome.

Our Grief Support Groups meet one hour every week for 12 weeks to complete a series. There are several series throughout year in both Kilmarnock.

The Grief Support Groups are generously supported by the Robert B. Lantz Foundation.
