A Place To Belong
It is human nature that we all want a place to go where we belong. A place where we feel accepted, welcomed, and understood.
We call our place of belonging a club.
The Grief Club of Minnesota.
Grief has no age or time limits, it is a lifelong process of transforming pain and suffering into strength, healing, and hope. The Grief Club welcomes those that we serve wherever they are on their grief journey.
