Holy Name Medical Center Hospice and Palliative Services is offering a bereavement support group, "Understanding Your Grief after the Death of Your Child," to provide compassionate support and education to those who have lost a child.

Many people experiencing the loss of a loved one find comfort in sharing their feelings with one another. This bereavement group is part of our “Sharing the Journey” series and was specifically developed to provide support and guidance through the grieving process for parents and grandparents. Trained bereavement counselors will facilitate the non-sectarian group.

The support group will run for ten weeks beginning March 17 from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM at Holy Name Medical Center, 718 Teaneck Road, Teaneck, New Jersey.

The program is free, but pre-registration by March 3 is mandatory. For information and registration, please leave a message for Claudia Coenen at (201) 833-3000, ext. 7483. Space is limited so please register early.
