One to One Peer Support - Provide intake interviews, evaluations, professional consultation, client placement and ongoing support. One to One peer support is provided by a trained volunteer who is at least 30 months past their loss to provide compassionate listening. Our peer counselors innately and intimately understand the unique aspects of grief and are matched with a person seeking support who has a similar experience of loss. This service is provided for up to a year to Michigan residents at no cost to the client. In response to COVID-19, these services were adapted to virtual offerings.
