Grief is a normal and natural response when we deal with a loss. Each of us mourn a loss differently. Some might prefer to be by themselves and mourn on their own. Others might feel a sense of comfort in sharing their pain and emotions with others. Regardless, grief is a personal journey that each of us face. There are support groups and services that are available to you in your local region. Many hospice providers provide grief support, whether your loved one was on hospice or not. Below is a list of CHAPCA Hospice Provider Members who provide support. However, if you do not see one located in your area, please contact CHAPCA and we can assist you in locating a grief and support group in your area. Please contact our office at (916) 925-3770 or email us at [email protected].
