Delaware Hospice and Cokesbury Village offer Drop-in Grief Support Group in Hockessin

 

Delaware Hospice and Cokesbury Village have partnered to offer help to those who have suffered a loss at their “Drop-In Grief Support Group,” held on the 3rd Thursday of each month, from February 18th through June 17th, from 6 to 7:30 p.m., at Cokesbury Village, 726 Loveville Road, Hockessin.

 

The grief journey can be difficult to navigate and it helps to have a guide who is familiar with the terrain.  Learn what to expect when grieving; compare notes with others; discover a supportive environment to ask hard questions; and learn survival tips and resources for the journey.

 

Ralph Plumley, ThM, CT, Bereavement Support Specialist for Delaware Hospice, and Reverend Deb Ebling, Chaplain for Cokesbury Village, will co-facilitate these sessions which are provided as a community service.  No fee or registration is required.
