Grief Groups for Families – Hospice Offers 2 Events This Fall

By Kim Livesay

For more than 35 years, Hospice of the Bluegrass has worked to meet the needs of those coping with loss.

Support groups and short-term individual counseling are available to people of all ages.

When a family experiences a death, children have special concerns and needs.

Hospice of the Bluegrass will offer two special groups this fall to address the needs of children/teens and their families.

Both groups are free of charge.

Chill & Spill
This is a group for girls between the ages of 13-17 who have experienced the death of their mother. Pizza will be served. This group will meet monthly.

Creative Coping
This is a series of three memory-making family workshops designed to open hearts and minds through artful expression.

The workshop is offered to children and adults who have experienced the death of someone significant in their lives.

No art experience necessary.

This group will meet monthly: Tuesday, Oct. 27 – Tuesday, Dec. 8.

Info for these groups: (859) 277-2700 or mweinstock@hospicebg.org.
