Hawaii Care Choices, provider of palliative, hospice and bereavement services, will be offering a free, six-week adult grief support group called the Healing Journey.

The group is open to anyone in the community who has suffered a loss. Meetings will be from 10-11:30 a.m. Wednesdays, March 7 through April 11, at Hawaii Care Choices’ office complex, 1011 Waianuenue Ave.

“Participants are comforted by the validation of their grief and the knowledge that they are not alone,” said community bereavement counselor and group leader Cathy Hough. “To light memorial candles for their loved ones, write in journals and to learn about the ways that grief ‘shows up’ empowers them to take charge and navigate their personal journey of loss.”

To participate in the Healing Journey, RSVP no later than March 5 to Hough at 961-7309. For more information, visit www.hawaiicarechoices.org.
