COMMUNITY BRIEFS – June 30, 2014
Family grief support meeting on July 3
A group that is in the process of forming a Compassionate Friends chapter in Saipan will be holding their monthly grief support meeting on Thursday, July 3, from 6pm to 7:30pm, in the NMPASI conference room on Middle Road, in Gualo Rai.
The mission of The Compassionate Friends is to assist families toward the positive resolution of grief following the death of a child of any age and to provide information to help others to be supportive.
Today more than 600 chapters serving all 50 states plus Washington D.C., Puerto Rico and Guam offer friendship, understanding, and hope to bereaved parents, siblings and grandparents and other family members during the natural grieving process after a child has died.
