Understanding Grief is designed to help people learn that healing is possible after the death of a loved one and there are effective ways to cope with grief and loss. The 90-minute virtual workshop will help attendees: • Identify normal responses to loss • Identify coping skills that may be helpful • Understand the importance of self-care in the grieving process. Understanding Grief is designed to be most helpful for those who have experienced a loss within the last 90 days, and are at least 18 years old. Register today at https://griefworkshop2021.eventbrite.com/  or call 904.407.7001.

3.  Coffee and Conversation: Bereavement Education and Support

This online support session will meet every Friday at 3pm to discuss various related topics each week. You will be able to connect with others, learn more about grief, and discuss any issues related to the weekly topic. We encourage you to join us for support at this very difficult time. Social isolation is difficult in the best of circumstances, but even worse when grieving. Sessions will be held once a week with a limited number of attendees. Attend once or as often as you'd like. Contact us to register and we will send you easy to follow instructions on how to connect to the meeting through video chat or phone.

For information or to register call 904.407.6464 or email Engagement@communityhospice.com.
