Bereavement & Grief Support Services

  • Weekly Support Group

    Facilitated by members of our bereavement team, this informal time is designed to offer an opportunity to share the highs and lows experienced by people who are grieving. Open to all who are able and ready to attend. Registration is not required.

    Wednesdays 1-2 PM
    Hospice & Community Care

  • Workshops

    We offer themed grief workshops, educational events, and special series throughout the year such as “Spring into Healthy Grieving as a Family” or “Getting through the Holidays.” The upcoming workshops are listed in the calendar below.

  • Children's Services

    Our campus features a Little Free Library filled with Children’s Grief Books and other resources available to anyone in our community. Additionally, we partner with Winthrop University Instructor Sarah Titman, MSW, and her Social Work students to offer age appropriate grief support opportunities and resources for children and teens and their caregivers.

  • Children's Gallery

    Project HOPE art pieces are exhibited in the Children’s Gallery on our campus. The Gallery allows participants to see their creations in a public setting, in addition to raising community awareness of grieving children and teens. Children who are guided and supported through the grief process learn appropriate ways to express their emotions, and are better able to cope with loss now and throughout their lifetime.
