Not feeling like a "Happy New Year"?

"Happy" may not have much meaning for you if someone you cherished has recently died. Feelings of confusion, isolation and apprehension are more normal when you are grieving. Don't struggle with your grief alone! CGSS spring support groups begin next week. Join with others who are grieving and learn ways to regain control of your life.

There is no charge. CGSS counselors will lead the following groups:

Loss of Adult Child
Loss of Parent, Grandparent or Sibling
Loss of Spouse - Employable Age
Loss of Spouse - Retired
North Shelby General Loss
West End General Loss
