Caring Connections: COVID-19 Support Groups

Caring Connections: A Hope and Comfort in Grief Program will begin to hold new support groups related to COVID-19. The first group will be focused on COVID-19 related grief. Losses in these unprecedented circumstances have potential to be experienced as trauma, and require compassionate, evidence-based care.

The second group will be focused on support for individuals who have had COVID-19 and are dealing with emotional struggles related to their illness and any lasting symptoms. As a relatively new experience, surviving COVID-19 has its own unique set of challenges that society as a whole is still learning about. People who are dealing with these difficulties can find support in this group from others with similar experiences.

Both groups will be held on Tuesday evenings, starting September 15th. Groups will be free to participants due to generous funding from the State of Utah Department of Human Services. For more information or to sign up, contact us at 801-585-9522. Groups will be held online via Zoom and are open to all Utah residents. Our support groups are led by health care professionals holding Masters and Doctoral Degrees in Social Work or Psychiatric Nursing or Licensed Professional Counseling.
