Grief Counseling
Alive’s Grief Center offers a place of comfort for anyone facing a loss. Support is available to caregivers and families coping with a life-limiting illness as well as children and adults who are bereaved.
Thanks to generous donors, Alive can provide these services at an affordable rate to the entire community, not just those with a loved one in our care.
We offer loss-specific support groups, family groups and expressive arts workshops for coping with grief each month. Join us to find support and community.
