It’s not unusual for grievers to feel disconnected from the world around them, but for LGBTQ grief and loss, a lack of disconnect can result in increased seclusion and isolation.While the issues faced in grief can be different for everyone, what every griever needs is the feeling of validation, acceptance and support. This group is designed to focus not only on the importance of support, but of finding the RIGHT support. Connecting with others who understand who we are and where we’ve been can help heal the pain of loss. The group is open to any lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender individuals who have experienced the loss of a partner/spouse. Contact Liz McKenna 781-585-4221 Ext 7 to register.

Journey To Hope is a parent-only grief group, supporting parents who have had a child of any age die due to any cause related to substance use. It was started by two moms in the Blackstone Valley area who met at a vigil held by the NOWA Peer Recovery Support Center in memory of those who lost the battle against SUD. Our goal is to offer one another peer support and understanding without judgment or bias. For our virtual meeting, you can find the link on the NOWA app, https://nowaedm.glideapp.io

We would love to hold your grieving hearts for a bit…to help offer you hope where there is despair. Losing your child is hard. It’s hard work to watch the world continue to turn while you feel that yours has been shattered. It’s hard to watch the years go by and feel like your child has been forgotten. Or that your grief has been forgotten. Please join others who understand both your sorrows and your joys–and the complex emotions that accompany both.
