Sign Up for Peer Group Supports

Note that registration for each weekly group through our website is required.

Registration opens weekly on each Friday at 10am.

Everyone in the group including the facilitators has experienced the loss of a loved one; you are not alone.

It's important to remember that there is no "right" way to grieve, and
everyone's process is valid and unique.

Disclaimer

  • Please be advised in order to register to the peer support groups an intake process and 1:1 session with a Grief Healing Support Centre Facilitator must be completed!

  • A reminder that all participants must register for each weekly session. Completing the registration for one week does not guarantee a spot for the following weeks. 

  • There is a 10 minute grace period after the group has started - at that time, participants will no longer be admitted to that week's group in effort to reduce disruption for other participants who have already began the discussion. 

Step-By-Step to Register:

  • Please click on the link to register to the respective peer support group. 

  • Once the registrations hits the maximum number of participants, it will be automatically close. 

    • You may visit back next week to register to the following week group sessions. ​

  • Zoom link will be automatically sent to your email once the registration is completed. 

  • The Grief Healing Support Centre Team will verify that all registrants for each weekly group have completed an initial intake and an individual support session before being granted access to the weekly zoom group meeting.

  • Please call (905) 898-6265 or email outreach@bfoyr.com for assistance or inquiries.

Weekly Zoom Start Time for Group Participants is 12Noon. 
          Zoom access Time for Facilitators ONLY is 1130am.
