Living With Loss: A Grief Support Group

Fridays, 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

This group is appropriate for students who have experienced a significant loss. Most commonly, that would be the death of a loved one, but could also include the break-up of a significant relationship or major loss. The group will involve mainly discussions, with some individual activities. Various topics will be covered throughout the year.

This is a drop-in group. Students can attend as many sessions as they need. We recommend that you call our office (494-2081) each Friday to confirm that the group is taking place.
