Chesapeake Life Center will offer two grief support programs in the new year that will meet both online via a telehealth platform, Zoom for Healthcare, as well as in-person on the John & Cathy Belcher Campus, 90 Ritchie Highway, Pasadena, Maryland.
One group that will be meeting both in-person and virtually is the Child Loss Support Group. This group is for parents who have experienced the death of a child of any age or circumstance. The group will meet from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on the first Wednesday of the month, Jan. 6, Feb 3. And March 3.
Also meeting both in-person and virtually is the center’s free Quarterly Book Group, where bereaved adults can share in conversations about where grief meets life in literature. This quarter’s book choice is “The Fault in Our Stars,” by John Green. The group will meet from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Feb. 5.
Per Center for Disease Control guidelines, the number of people who will be allowed to participate in programs in person is limited to six to allow for physical distancing. Face masks must be worn at all times. Visit hospicechesapeake.org/events for a complete listing of in-person and virtual groups and workshops.
