After the funeral, when friends and family have gone home, when the cards and telephone calls stop coming, when everyone else has resumed a normal life, the real work of grief recovery begins. GriefShare is designed as a weekly seminar and support group to help provide the ongoing support, care and encouragement needed to heal from the hurt of the loss of a loved one. Each of the 13 weekly sessions includes viewing a 35 minute DVD tape produced in television magazine format which features top experts on topics of grief. The sessions also include an opportunity for each participant to talk about their own grief experience and hear from others with similar experiences while in the support group discussions. GriefShare is a program to help you in your journey from mourning to joy.
