Circles of Grief

    A safe, gentle space to share your grief and be heard — without judgment, without pressure, without agenda.

    What is The Circle Grief?

    A grief gathering of people who have experienced loss. It's not therapy. It's not a class. It's a space where you can sit with others who understand what you're going through — because they've been there too.

    Some people share right away. Some just listen for months. Both are exactly right.

    The sessions are held by trained peer facilitators — community members with lived experience in grief and with training through the Hospice Palliative Care Ontario (HPCO) program.

    Peer-Led

    Facilitated by community members with lived grief experience and formal training.

    Non-Clinical

    This is not therapy — it's compassionate, human connection in a safe environment.
