Grief Support – Tillamook

RSVP and/or questions: Pam Strachan  |  strachea@ah.org  |  503-815-2411

This free, in-person support group is for adults who are struggling with difficult and unexpected emotions from shock, anger, disbelief, guilt and sadness from grief. 

Grief is a normal response to a loss during or after a traumatic event which can happen in response to a loss of life, as well as to drastic changes to daily routines and ways of life. Recent research states that under normal circumstances, 10 percent of bereaved people would be expected to develop prolonged grief, which is unusually intense, incapacitating and persistent. For COVID-related grief, that proportion may be higher because the pandemic has been associated with many risk factors.
