GRIEF CARE

The loss of a loved one is a challenging and sorrowful time. Tri-Cities Chaplaincy offers free grief support groups to anyone who has experienced a death.

Based in the Tri-Cities, our grief support groups are available free of charge to anybody who is grieving the death of a loved one in Richland, Kennewick, Pasco and the surrounding areas in Franklin and Benton Counties. Grief support groups are facilitated by professional bereavement staff and trained volunteers. Our primary goal is to provide you with a safe space to heal and equip you with the tools, resources and information you need to process your grief and live a productive life.

View our full list of grief support groups below. You can request more information by calling (509) 783-7416 or emailing GriefSupport@TCCBestLife.org.
