Grieving Support Groups: Remote, Virtual, and Online

VITAS Healthcare support groups provide information and guidance to those experiencing grief and loss.

We offer an assortment of phone-in support groups and Zoom video support groups, free of charge, to help meet the needs of caregivers. These support groups are offered by VITAS Bereavement Services.

Our offerings include ongoing support groups as well as a selection of support groups that last for a single session ranging from six to 22 weeks. If you don't see a group that meets your current needs, check back — new groups are added often.

Current Ongoing Support Groups

These are held weekly on Zoom for 60 minutes per session:

LGBTQ+ and Grief: Tuesdays (6:30 p.m. ET / 5:30 p.m. CT / 3:30 p.m. PT)
Grupo de Apoyo General para Hispanoparlantes: Wednesdays (8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT / 5 p.m. PT)
Men and Grief: First and third Friday of each month (1 p.m. ET / Noon CT / 10 a.m. PT)

If you'd like to participate in a Zoom video support group, you can view these instructions. Our phone-in and Zoom support groups are not held on these three federal holidays: Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day.

All groups are 60 minutes unless otherwise specified.
