Picking Up the Pieces: Support for the Newly Bereaved
A Summer Support Program for Those Who Grieve
Mondays on July 12, 26 and August 9, 23

These drop in groups are a gathering time for bereaved individuals and families.  Each session provides information on the grief process and allows for an opportunity to share - or just listen - with others who are dealing with a recent loss.

No registration is required.  For information, please call Kristine Gagnon, Bereavement Care Coordinator at (416) 626-0116 ext. 227.

Walking Through Your Grief - May to September

Tuesdays, Sam Smith Park (Kipling & Lakeshore Blvd.) 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Wednesdays, Mississauga Valley Park (Mississauga Valley Rd. & Arista) 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Fridays, West Deane Park (off Martingrove between Rathburn & Eglinton Ave.) 9:30 to 10:30 a.m.

The walking group is open to anyone who has experienced the death of someone significant.  It is a time to walk and talk at a relaxed pace with others who are grieving, share ideas and support while benefiting from some fresh air and exercise.  Walking with this group helps if you are felling lonely, isolated or unsure about future directions.  Joining in on the walk are caring volunteers to provide a listening ear.

Registration is required.  Walks will commence when a minimum of four participants are registered.  To sign up, please call the hospice at 416-626-0116.  For a copy of the flyer, please click here.
