This group meets the 2nd Wednesday of the month at 8 or 10 p.m. Eastern.


We request you sign up at least 24 hours before you attend your first session so that we can ensure the integrity of the group and answer any questions you may have. Sign up is required only once per meeting time, so pick whichever meeting time works best for you!


Parents chatting

This online group was developed for parents and guardians wondering how they could support grieving children. Created specifically to be a safe place for parents and guardians to learn from each other and from expert guests, the Parenting Grieving Children group is formatted to provide time for open discussion as well as space to pose questions, exchange ideas, and share practical ways to engage grieving children and teenagers. Because we know that schedules (and moods! And dinners! And bedtimes!) require functional backup plans, we offer this session twice, once at 8 p.m. and once at 10 p.m. Eastern, on the second Wednesday of the month.

What to Expect

Online groups are peer-led, facilitated sessions where there’s never pressure to share, but always an opportunity. Whether you attend once or regularly, you will always be welcomed. We value the importance of knowing that there are “places” we can show up and feel supported and inspired, and you can decide to connect with us every week or whenever it’s convenient or compelling.  

Please remember that, while we anticipate that these groups will become engaging, encouraging community gathering “places,” you never have to wait if you need to talk. We’re always here for you, 24 hours, 7 days a week, year-round, at 202-588-8277.
