Coping with Grief From the Loss of a Child
Coping With the Grief From the Loss of a Child Support Group (meets 60 mins monthly)
The “Coping With the Grief From the Loss of a Child” Support Group will be a closed group to those caregivers in our community who have lost a child or adult with Phelan-McDermid syndrome. The goal of this group is to offer a safe and supportive space for those grieving to understand, process, and cope with the immense impacts grief can have on your mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. Our ultimate goal is to meet you where you’re at and provide you with the mental health support and community connection to help you build the tools needed for grieving.
