Adam's House in Shelton to offer 'Grief 4 Graduates' pilot program in July
Initiative launched for 18-25 year olds
SHELTON - Adam’s House recently announced the launch of “Grief 4 Graduates,”
an innovative, free grief education and peer support program for 18 to 25-year-olds who
are mourning the loss of a loved one.
The program is designed to provide peer support, knowledge, and meaningful connections for young adults as they navigate their feelings of grief and isolation amid the life-altering disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We’re excited to start this pilot program because there are no other grief education services in the area geared solely for 18-25 year olds,” says Allison Wysota, Founder and Executive Director of Adam’s House. “This age group often feels like they have nowhere to turn for help because they don't quite relate to adult support groups, but are too old for children's groups. Given the wave of deaths following the coronavirus pandemic, more than ever bereaved young people need a place where they can feel safe, comfortable, supported, understood, and bond with peers their age.”
The “Grief 4 Graduates” program is made possible, in part, from a Valley Community Foundation grant award.
Sharon Closius, Valley Community Foundation President & CEO, said, “We are delighted to support such an important and timely initiative for bereaved young adults in the community."
The “Grief 4 Graduates” program will meet at Adam’s House, 241 Coram Ave., from 6:30-8 p.m. Wednesdays, July 2-29.
For more information or to enroll in “Grief 4 Graduates” call 203-513-2808, email AdamsHouseCT@gmail.com, or visit https://www.adamshousect.org/grief4graduates
