The Canuck Place team invites you to explore our Bereavement Support Group offerings

Please note: These support groups are intended for families up to three years after the loss of a child who was cared for by Canuck Place and who are at least six months bereaved.

Bi-weekly groups provide parents and carers the opportunity to grieve the death of their child in a supportive environment. Each session explores a grief-related theme or experience shared by bereaved families with the intention of stewarding connection. There may be childminding available.

*We welcome families to express interest at any time to begin intake process 

**Childminding and adapted programming will be available for children under 5

***Once registered, participants are asked to commit to regular attendance for the full series
