WATERVILLE — Grief can be an especially complex and difficult process during this period of social distancing. When we are grieving, we may need support and connections with our loved ones, friends and community organizations rather than isolation or distancing. In addition, we may also be grieving the loss of jobs, school, favorite places, activities, and connections with family members and friends.
Although Hospice Volunteers of Waterville Area is not able to offer in-person groups and appointments because of COVID-19, it continues to support clients and community. Including
* Hope’s Place, the program for grieving children, meets Wednesday evenings online.
* The Survivors of Suicide support group, offered to anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved one or significant person through suicide, will meet virtually at 6 p.m., beginning Thursday, June 11, and will be held for six weeks.
* The General Loss support group will meet virtually the first and third Mondays of the month, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Meetings provide a time for sharing and receiving peer support from others who have also experienced a loss.
* One on one support is available by phone or video conference.
