Events

With supervision and support, compassionate listeners from all walks of life serve as bereavement facilitators.   Volunteer Support Group Facilitators are the backbone of our program. They lead grief support groups for children, teens, or adults, either in the North Valley or in Rio Rancho. Facilitators are trained, teamed up with more experienced facilitators, and supported by our staff.

As one of our volunteers wrote, “This is the most rewarding thing I do.”
