How many people are in the group?

Each group is capped at 15 people. Please contact d@endswellcremation.com if you are unable to attend so we can open a spot for another person.
Will I be required to make a commitment to come for a particular number of times?

This is an open and flexible group. Each session stands on its own. Feel free to come when you can.
What kind of grief does the Grief Circle address?

All of us experience losses over our lifetimes. This Grief Circle focuses on grief that follows the loss of loved ones, such as a spouse, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, grandchild or friend. Although we do not focus on other losses (divorce, job loss, pet death, chronic illness, etc.), such losses may impact how you experience grief following the death of a loved one.
How soon after I have lost a loved one should I come?

The timing of your participation in the group is up to you. You must be ready to listen to other people's grief stories as well as share your own. If you have questions, feel free to reach out to a member of the Grief Circle - d@endswellcremation.com
