FHN » First Steps Grief Support Group

Grief is a normal reaction when we experience loss. It is a painful journey that touches every part of our lives, affecting us physically, emotionally, socially, mentally, and spiritually.

First Steps Grief Support Group is a bereavement group designed especially for anyone who has experienced a loss within the last 6 months. This 6-session group, meeting over the course of 3 months, offers you support as the first steps are taken in dealing with a loss.
