Families are often told about The Sharing Place program following the death of a loved one. We encourage families that are interested to call and schedule a confidential family tour and interview. Following the interview the children and teens will be placed on the waiting list for the peer support group that best meets their needs.
Our grief support groups are open ended groups, so when one member of a group leaves the program we invite another participant to join the group. This open ended group provides an unspoken mentoring process. Participants may attend group as long as they feel they need the support.
Families are asked to make a financial pledge to the program. We do not bill insurance companies. There is no cost to the family for the first visit and tour. Once they join a group, they will be asked to contribute on a self-determined basis.
