Bereavement Support Groups & Events

Spring

Sometimes it is helpful to speak to others who are experiencing the particular type of loss that you have also experienced. To address this important aspect of its mission, Home & Hospice Care of Rhode Island offers a number of 6-week support groups, monthly drop-in groups and special topic drop-in groups. See below.


The Center for Grief & Healing Offers A Variety of Support Groups
