Bakken-Young Grief Support during Covid 19 Virus

by Chaplain Julia Rajtar, MAPS, BCC

 

Following the guidance of the CDC and the Wisconsin Department of Health, we are eliminating in- person groups, whether it is the Coffees every other Friday or the Grief Group which begins March 23. None of these groups will be held in person. They will, however, be offered virtual.

 

Coffee and Conversation via Zoom Meeting Technology

You make your own coffee and join us virtually through your cell phone or laptop via Zoom meetings.
This is a way to feel support during this time of grief and loneliness, and it is helpful to meet others
and laugh together. Come regularly, twice a month on Fridays, for coffee and conversation.

8:00-9:00am
