The GriefCare Place opened its doors in June of 1997. It offers a SAFE PLACE where those grieving the death of a loved one can find support, education, understanding, and a caring place to heal. The center serves individuals of all ages, offers a home-like atmosphere and is a non-denominational faith based organization where those of strong faith or those of none can come comfortably.
The GriefCare Place educates participants about grief and provides caring volunteers who walk alongside and companion them during the grieving/healing process.
The GriefCare Place charges no fees and is funded entirely by fundraising events, donations, and memorial gifts. Since it is a charitable, non-profit organization, all donations are tax deductible under IRS section 501(c)(3). Financial support is a continuous need, greatly appreciated, and is responsibly spent.
No rule book.
No time frame.
No judgement.
Grief is as individual
as a fingerprint.
Do what is right
for your soul.
Although it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, may looking back in memory help comfort your tomorrow.
Don't be ashamed of your story, it will inspire others.
Don't forget two steps forward and one step back is still going in the right direction!
1) Accept support from family and friends
2) Watch your diet, and make time for exercise
3) Get plenty of sleep
4) Be Flexible
5) Avoid self-destructive habits
6) Balance your time
7) Keep a routine
8) Avoid making big decisions too soon
9) Remember you loved one
10) Get away
11) Help others
12) Reevaluate your priority
Realistically, nothing will completely erase the pain you feel. However, many who have lost a loved one can attest that taking positive steps, such as listed above, helped them to find comfort.
Find what works for you!
