Support Group Information


You Are Not Alone.

Please feel free to join our support group

Welcoming new members is always such a mix of emotions. We are glad you found us, but we are sorry for the circumstances that bring us together. We understand your pain, and we hope that our unconditional friendship and support will help you through the grief. For some, the first few meetings can be rather overwhelming— especially if you are newly bereaved. We hope that anyone experiencing these feelings will return for just a couple more meetings and see if we don’t grow on you.

English Support Group meetings are held at:

Patrick Hardesty Midtown Police Dept.
1100 S. Alvernon Way (N/W corner Alvernon & 22nd St)
Third Thursday of each month from 7:00- 9:00 PM

We are sorry for the circumstances that bring you to our group, but we hope that we can be of some assistance to you as you work through your grief. Our meetings are open to any survivor of a homicide victim: Parent, Brother, Sister, Son, Daughter, Cousin, Aunt, Uncle, Grandparent, or Friend. You are invited to attend our meetings each month. Nothing is required of you. There are no dues or fees and you need not speak a word. Attending your first meeting takes courage, but most find it a comforting network of support, friendship, and understanding that only those who have been there can give. The meetings are a time for sharing stories, experiences and emotions. We share a common bond, so we are free to express any emotion: anger, sadness, frustration and sometimes even laughter. We believe that our support groups facilitate a self-help response to grief. Over time, we expect that support group participants ultimately progress to a point where they no longer require the support group or to a point where their participation in the group is based more on offering support from their experience of overcoming their own personal challenges. The principal expectation of the support group is that each group member will progress and ultimately deal with or resolve their feelings and issues raised to the point where overwhelming feelings are no longer controlling their life. Many survivors find that through helping others, they themselves grow stronger. Reaching out to others can help to soften our own pain. Making positive changes in our loved one’s memory creates a loving legacy.

Sea parte de nuestro grupo
Lamentmos la circumstancia que lo trae a nuestro grupo, pero esperamos que pueda ser de asistencia para usted durante su affliccion. Nuestras juntas estan disponibles a cualquiera persona que ha sobrevivido a una victima de homicidio- Padres, Hermanos, Hermanas,Primos, Tias, Tios, Abuelos, Hijo,Hija, Amistad etc. Lo invitamos atender nuestros juntas mensualmente. Nada es requirido de usted, no se requiere pagar quotas, ni es necesario hablar si no lo desea. Atender su primer junta se necesita Fortaleza, la mayoria de atendentes lo encuentran como una red de apoyo, amistad, y comprension que solo personas que han sobrevivido, pueden dar. Todos son bienvenidos. Los grupos son para compartir, estorias, experiencias, y emociones. Compartimos este vinculo, pore so se permite expresar cualquier emocion inclusivo: corraje, tristeza, frustracion, y a veces hasta rizas. Creemos que nuestro grupos utilizan la creenza de auto- ayudarse. En el transcurso de tiempo, esperamos que nuestros participantes progresen y no necisiten el apoyo total de el grupo, -- quiza la participacion de esas personas sea transferida a asistir a otros por medio de su experencias personales como sobrevivientes. Las expectativas principales de el grupo son que cada sobreviviente haga progreso, y finalmente pueda tratar con los temas o las emociones sin resolucion que se han complicado por el hecho, y sentir que su emociones no estan en contol de su vida.
Muchos sobrevivientes encuentran fuerza en asistir a otros, suele suceder que en asistir a otros nuestro propio dolor se minimize. En hacer cambios positivos en memoria de nuestros seres queridos se forma una legacia de amor.
