SUMMARY:Grief Support Group
DESCRIPTION:This Zoom-based grief group is a welcoming\, compassionate space for people navigating the loss of a loved one—most commonly a spouse or partner\, family member\, or close friend. Together\, we create room to honor our experiences\, share what feels right\, and connect with others who truly understand the complexities of grief. \nThere is no timeline\, no pressure to speak\, and no expectation to “be okay.” You are welcome to participate in whatever way feels most supportive\, whether that means sharing your story\, listening quietly\, or simply being present. Meeting virtually allows you to join from the comfort and privacy of your own space. This group is about companionship\, understanding\, and gentle support as you move through loss in your own way. \nThe group meets on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month from 3 – 4:30 p.m. via Zoom. The group is free and open to the public. For questions\, contact Bonnie at 651-497-8248 or bjaffe@jfcsmn.org.

SUMMARY:Caregiver Support Group — You Don’t Have to Do This Alone
DESCRIPTION:Are you caring for a partner/spouse\, older family member or older loved one and finding that the responsibility can feel heavy and lonely at times? Caregiving is an act of love\, but it can also be emotionally and physically demanding. Having support can make a meaningful difference. \nCaregiving can sometimes feel isolating\, but it doesn’t have to be. Sharing stories\, listening to others\, and offering mutual encouragement can help caregivers feel more grounded\, resilient\, and supported in their journey. This group is about caring for the caregiver. Whether you are providing care at home\, from afar\, exploring additional support services\, or considering future care options\, you are welcome here. Our Caregiver Support Group offers a welcoming\, compassionate space for caregivers to connect with others who understand the unique challenges and rewards of this role. \nWhat this group offers: \n\nA supportive\, judgment-free environment to share experiences and feelings\nConnection with other caregivers who truly understand what you’re going through\nPractical guidance\, encouragement\, and helpful resources\nA sense of relief that comes from being heard\, understood\, and supported\n\nThe group meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 3 – 4 p.m. via Zoom. The group is free and open to the public. For questions\, contact Tara at 763-300-3146 or tburns@jfcsmn.org.

SUMMARY:Grief Support Group
DESCRIPTION:This Zoom-based grief group is a welcoming\, compassionate space for people navigating the loss of a loved one—most commonly a spouse or partner\, family member\, or close friend. Together\, we create room to honor our experiences\, share what feels right\, and connect with others who truly understand the complexities of grief. \nThere is no timeline\, no pressure to speak\, and no expectation to “be okay.” You are welcome to participate in whatever way feels most supportive\, whether that means sharing your story\, listening quietly\, or simply being present. Meeting virtually allows you to join from the comfort and privacy of your own space. This group is about companionship\, understanding\, and gentle support as you move through loss in your own way. \nThe group meets on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month from 3 – 4:30 p.m. via Zoom. The group is free and open to the public. For questions\, contact Bonnie at 651-497-8248 or bjaffe@jfcsmn.org.
