PROGRAMS
New Hope’s programs give you a safe place to express your grief, connect with others experiencing a similar loss, and begin the healing process. Registration is required to ensure each griever is placed into the appropriate group. There is no charge for our programs, except the event fundraisers – New Hope Spring Gala and the Merry Little Christmas Party Fundraiser.
The “From Grief to New Hope” Eight Week Workshop combines the educational components of a seminar with the safety and support of a peer group. This workshop is available in person and virtually, to adults who are grieving the death of a loved one regardless of how long it has been since the loss occurred. This workshop is a safe place to express your grief and begin the healing process. Each session includes a speaker, and then participants are placed into small groups with others who are a similar age and have experienced similar loss. Small groups are guided by facilitators who have also experienced similar loss and have traveled their own grief journey.
