Grief support for children and young teens 

by Livingston staff

Livingston Memorial’s Grief and Bereavement Program is committed to providing free bereavement services to the community. Our highly skilled grief counselors and volunteer support group facilitators are providing tele-therapy via Zoom to those grieving the death of a loved one.  

We have just added a young teen grief support group (ages 11-14) via Zoom for any young teen grieving the death of a loved one. We recognize the value a young teen receives from sharing their grief experience with their peers. The group provides support, connection and validation that they are not alone. Group meetings held the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month from 5:30 to 6:30 pm via Zoom. 

Additional virtual grief support groups include: General Bereavement Support Group on Mondays 3:00 to 4:30 pm and Tuesdays 10:30 to 12:00 pm. Good Grief Club 1st and 3rd Tuesdays 5:30 to 7 pm. Young Widow and Widowers Support Group Tuesdays 5:30 to 7:00 pm. Widow and Widower’s Support Group Wednesdays 1:00 to 2:30 pm. General Bereavement Support Group Wednesdays 6:30 to 8:00 pm. Survivors of a Suicide Loss 1st and 3rd Wednesdays 6:30 to 8:00 pm. Bereaved Mom’s Support Group: 2nd Thursday of every month 6-7:30 pm. Adult Loss of Parent Support Group: 1st and 3rd Thursday of every month 6:00 to 7:30 pm. General Bereavement Support Group Thursdays 6:00 to 7:30 pm. Spanish General Bereavement Support Group: 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month from 6:00 to 7:30 pm. Teen Grief Support Group (15-18 yrs.) Mondays 4:00 to 5:00 pm. Young Teen Grief Support Group (12-15 yrs.) Wednesdays 3:30 to 4:30 pm.
