Grief Support

Coping with the loss of a parent, spouse, child, other family member, or dear friend can be overwhelming. For many, it may seem impossible. Talking about your grief and sharing memories of the person you’re grieving with others doesn’t only help heal your own pain, it can help others in their grieving process as well.

Grieving and healing after the death of a loved one is a lifelong journey. Wherever you are on your journey, SendOff can support you with resources and referrals to help you find a way forward.
