Connections: A Child & Family Bereavement Support Program

Registration required. Please call Erin McHugh at 631-828-7631

Good Shepherd Hospice offers a FREE, professionally run, 7-week bereavement group program for children ages 5-17 years old and their caregivers who have experienced a death of a loved one.

• Children engage in therapeutic activities that encourage emotional healing, increase understanding, development of healthy coping skills and preservation of memories.
• Adult caregivers attend their own concurrent support group, where they will learn about the nature of their children’s grief and how to best support them.
