"How to Run Effective
Bereavement Support Groups
In Your Parish"

You are cordially invited to attend a Bereavement Enrichment Workshop which is being offered by the Office of Bereavement Ministry, Diocese of Brooklyn, and is co-sponsored by Catholic Cemeteries, Catholic Cemeteries Guild, and Catholic Charities.

Come and listen to experts! This workshop is intended to answer questions you always had about running support groups but were, afraid to ask, or maybe you are wondering what else could be done to enhance the program you are presently running.

Topics to be covered include:

• What is involved in setting up a Parish Support Program, planning, recruiting and resources that are available to help beef-up your program;
• The differences between special focused Bereavement Support Groups and General Bereavement Support Groups;
• The ins and outs of running a Suicide Survivor's Bereavement Support Groups, and, any other questions about Suicide that you might have.
