Widow Care Peer Support Group (Weekly Zoom Meeting)

**NOTE** Please visit www.meetup.com/Widows-Widowers-of-Montgomery-County/events/calendar/ for full access to Widow Care's event schedule, event locations, and other event details only visible to our widowed members.

Our Peer Support Group has been hosted on a weekly basis via Zoom due to the restrictions arising from COVID-19. We will continue this on a regular basis even as restrictions are lifted. The virtual meeting is open to widows and widowers of all ages.

We believe in the importance of having a safe space to open up about the pain and grief that stems from loss and finding support from others who have also suffered from loss - especially during challenging times like these. The goal is to focus on talking and listening to one another and lifting each other up.

Agenda:

-Discuss group guidelines to ensure safety and confidentiality 

-Icebreakers for participants to get to know each other and feel comfortable 

-The floor will then be open to anyone who wants to speak about whatever is on their mind-- resurfaced memories, grief, new relationships, whatever it may be. 

-Close out the session and offer materials, such as grief resources, other support groups, partner services, etc.
