The free and confidential support group meets virtually on the second Thursday of every month from 7-8:30 p.m.

The support group is open to everyone in New Jersey and serves as a safe space for families to discuss their grief.

We are transitioning to the skating rink at Mercer County Park, which is actually a bit closer to the eastern side of the county. There will be some overlap as we make the transition, but there is nothing more to it than that.”
