There are many special opportunities to work through and understand grief better, offered throughout the year. Opportunities include:

  • For Men Only, to explore the unique reactions to grief that men experience.
  • Forbidden Grief - A Glimpse of Men in Grief - a seminar for women only, to better understand the grieving process the men in their lives are experiencing.
  • As well as several other opportunities open to the entire community.
