When someone dies, loved ones go through intense grief. When the death is complicated by murder or suicide, this adds to the trauma. Midland Care offers a monthly Traumatic Loss Group for adult family members or friends.
This group provides ongoing emotional support for survivors as they seek to reconstruct their “new life”. Group begins with introductions. Often, there is a topic to discuss or a personal story to share. Refreshments are served.
Before attending, a face-to-face visit is required with Midland Care Center for Hope and Healing Staff. To set up your info visit contact Suz McIver at 785-232-2044 ext. 701100 or smciver@midlandcc.org.
