The journey through
loss and grief is a difficult and challenging time for individuals.
That bereavement pilgrimage is often made more difficult by
social attitudes that deny the validity of peoples grief
experience and question its natural and necessary role in healing
and restoring a person. In addition, the helping resources available
in the community are not always well known or publicized.
Northwest Ohio HEALS: Help and Encouragement After Loss
wants to help change that situation. We are a newly-formed,
collaborative, non-profit membership organization that, in the
words of our Mission Statement, seeks "to help meet the
needs of bereaved individuals and families by coordinating and
developing community grief resources." Our goal is to identify,
highlight and support the grief resources already available
and help connect people with them. We also seek to foster education
about grief issues as well as develop and nurture new and additional
resources for our community as need would indicate. |
