Walk With Grief

Humans are social animals. It feels good to hold each other and be held in hard times. In modern society it can be tricky to figure out how to connect - from both ends. We're hoping to make it a little easier.

The people waiting at the trailhead on Thurman St. on June 26th at 10:00am would like to take a walk with you and your grief. This isn't a therapeutic interaction or a replacement for professional mental heath care; it's just people who have carried heavy things and know how it feels, who are strong in this moment and willing to shoulder a little of whatever you're carrying, offering their time and attention. We're not looking to problem solve, just to share humanness. It's an opportunity to acknowledge how turned arounf a person can get and how much it helps to walk in generous, open-hearted, non-judgemental company.
