I’m so excited and honored to share that I’ve been voted onto the Board of Directors at Laurel’s Grief Center located in Tonawanda, NY- right down the street from my old elementary school!
Their mission is to support children, families, and adults compassionately as they navigate their personal grief journey. They have several types of grief support groups and wellness programs that are facilitated by trained, certified peer facilitators who also happen to be some of the kindest people I’ve met.
I’m so grateful to be working alongside like-minded people with similar goals of walking with people through their grief as they find their footing, providing tools for healing and growth, and growing a community that understands what they’re going through. What makes this feel especially meaningful is that my work resides at the intersection of grief and neurodivergence- and so does Laurel’s. Finding an organization whose mission mirrors my own specializations so closely feels like coming home.
And you wanna know what else is so amazing?? I get to facilitate the Widowed Support Program IN PERSON at their location!!!
The ARROW Widowed Support Program will be offered twice annually- in the spring and fall- at Laurel’s Grief Center in Tonawanda. There is no charge for participation; donations are gratefully accepted for Laurel’s Grief Center.
