Pet Loss Grief Support meeting

The Center honors, respects, and cherhishes the connection and love that we share with our animals. This profound bond reflects the genuine bond that holds them so close to our hearts and leads to such significant grief when we lose them. The time following their loss can... be such a diffcult time for their people, and a lonely process for many.

We offer individuals a caring group to help them walk this path. Our  group meets weekly and is open to anyone that has lost a pet including caregivers, vets and staff, shelter workers, pet sitters, and walkers. We offer support, information, and assistance in this no-cost and therapeutically supportive group. 

This is a time of reflection and gentle compassion. Come share a story that honors your pet, or simply listen and learn while we share a meaningful path for this time of grief. We also offer handouts for helping answer children’s questions, how to honor a pet’s memory, and additional resources for grieving.

Meeting Saturdays at 10:00 AM.
