About The Format

This program can be taught once a week for 8 weeks or twice a week for 4 weeks. There are 2-3 days in between sessions if offered twice a week. Each session is approximately 2 hours long. There is reading and assignments in between sessions. New participants can join on sessions 1 or 2; after session 2 the group is closed. GRM Support Groups are not drop in style groups. All GRM programs are confidential, structured and action oriented.


A Note From The Presenter:

The next GRM support group will be conducted in October, 2019. In addition, for those individuals who have completed
our 8 week sessions, we will also conduct a 4 week Alumni
GRM support group. For more information, please contact
me. I will update once dates have been secured.

After serving 22 years, 17 of which as Director of Victim Witness Advocacy, for the Cumberland County Prosecutor's Office, I discovered a gap in services for crime victims who have suffered a loss, in the immediate aftermath of victimization. With retirement on the horizon, I wanted to continue my advocacy for crime victims, specifically those suffering from grief. After my completion of the Grief Recovery Method Specialist Training in 2018, I was able to collaborate with the Cumberland County Prosecutor's Office to provide grief recovery support groups. As a co-facilitator, the Cumberland County Prosecutor's Office offers an 8-week Grief Recovery Method Support Group for anyone who has suffered a loss due to crime that originated in Cumberland County. This service is free.
