Support Groups
Support groups provide an opportunity for people to help each other by openly sharing their challenges and successes. Below is an updated list of support groups. For current schedules, please contact the support groups directly.
Hope Health has transitioned their support groups to online via Zoom. Virtual support groups, including grief support groups, to aid Rhode Islanders of all ages are available through Hope Health. COVID-19 is both physically AND mentally taking it’s toll. Grief support is available for healthcare professionals (coping with cumulative loss), teens, children, and anyone who has lost a loved one. Additionally, emotional support, education and resources are also available for all family caretakers (anyone caring for a loved one).
