BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT GROUP

YANA (You Are Not Alone) is the name of our Bereavement Support Group. 

If you have experienced the death of a loved-one, we invite you to our monthly support group meetings. Our trained facilitators, although they are not counselors, will provide support and understanding as you journey through your grief. Our facilitators have experienced various types of losses and have traveled through the grief themselves. They will offer their insights, experiences and support to help you recover. We want you to know that You Are Not Alone. 

YANA gathers in the Church Hall on the second Wednesday of each month, 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
