Community Grief Support
Grief continues well after loss occurs and each individual experiences it in unique ways. Many people find it helpful to talk with others going through a similar experience. To support you on your journey, Home Health United offers grief support options to anyone in the community who has experienced loss. Grief support groups and session run throughout the year and this schedule will be updated regularly.
