Widows/Widowers Support Group
begins Thursday, June 1, 6 to 7:30 pm
Saguaro library
Preston Young will help to facilitate this new weekly support group.
Widows/Widowers is a nonprofit all-volunteer group of widowed individuals supporting each other in all stages of bereavement.
Founded in 1977 by Genevieve Ginsberg, a professional counselor and a widow, the organization is governed by a joint board comprised of members from the support groups.
Comprised of widows and widowers in various stages of healing, the group supports members through actively listening to one another as they talk about their experiences.
"We listen to what hurts as well as what works...This is an effective way to process grief, move forward, and heal."
