Virtual and in-person programs that provide guided connection and support within a peer community. Speakers and panels on post-traumatic growth are also offered.
COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS
Community Conversations is a virtual speaker series welcoming our families to connect, heal, and grow.
Stay tuned for upcoming Community Conversations and available recordings of past events.
PEER SUPPORT GROUPS
Tuesday's Promise Peer Support Groups provide a welcoming community where adults can share experiences, find understanding, and build meaningful relationships with others who have walked a similar path. Grounded in evidence-based practices that foster connection, belonging, resilience, and post-traumatic growth—our groups help participants discover that while grief becomes part of their story, it does not have to define their future.
