Cornerstone of Hope: Grief Support series and camp

If you’re grieving, you don’t have to do it alone. Cornerstone of Hope is a nonprofit Comprehensive Bereavement Support Center serving Ohio.

Established in 2003, Cornerstone of Hope offers support to children and families, as well as resources for schools, businesses, and related professionals working with bereaved individuals.

Some of the services include individual counseling, support groups, seminars, holiday events, yoga, and more.

Cornerstone of Hope offers programming throughout the year, including themed events to help get you through specific holidays and events that may be difficult during the grief process.

No two journeys of grief are the same, but they are all difficult, confusing, and lonely. Please reach out for help if you are struggling with your grief.

Grief and Compassion

We live in a world that can be intolerant of grieving individuals and the grief process itself. After the death of our loved ones, the expectation is often that we return to “life as usual” as quickly as possible. In this session of Grief Matters, we will examine the hurdles faced by those who grieve, peering through the lens of individual, family, and societal expectations as we endeavor to claim and offer ourselves compassion in the midst of grief.
