Mutual support can help toward the resolution of grief and allow for healing and growth. People may come alone or as couples. We welcome other family members or friends who can support a parent. Attendance may be regular or irregular - as parents feel the need. Parents share their experiences and feelings to the degree they feel comfortable.
Silence is accepted.
It is not a group therapy session. We are here to listen, share and understand. The group is guided by specially trained coordinators. There is additional professional support, if needed. Unite group meetings are held at Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital.
