Local Resources for Dealing With a Loss

Norton Healthcare
Grief Care Information Center
Grief is our natural response to life's losses. It is a process of growth, healing and adjustment to the new reality after the loss.

The Grief Care Information Center is an initiative of the Pastoral Care department at Norton Healthcare, made possible by a grant from the Norton Healthcare Community Trust Fund. The center provides grieving people and those who support them with information on help that is available.

Resources are available to address the grief caused by the death of a child or loved one, as well as other forms of loss and grief - such as bankruptcy, chronic illness, divorce, disability or loss of employment. The center's database contains more than 2000 entries and is updated regularly. You can request information about therapeutic and educational resources including:

Books and pamphlets
Audio-visual material
Support groups
Online resources

BRIDGES CENTER
Rebuilding After Life-Changing Loss
Our name "Bridges" reflects our belief that our programs and services provide just what other bridges provide; a clear direction and path to get from one place to another. Bridges frequently span great lengths over deep chasms. Grief is like that, too. It requires journeying over and through deep and treacherous places for a long time. When people make the journey through grief, just as when they cross a bridge, they find a new "land" with firm, solid ground.

Services are offered for adults and adolescents.
