Grief is normal.  If we care about another, sooner or later, we will experience grief.

This website exists as an extension of the mission of the Community Coalition on Grief and Bereavement in the four counties of the northwest corner of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.  Our goal is to provide grief education, support, and referrals to the people of this area.

 Final Board Meetings for the 2012-13 year:
June 11,2013
to be held in Bootjack

Art From the Heart event cancelled

The Community Coalition on Grief and Bereavement and Finlandia University regret to announce that this year’s Art from the Grieving Heart contest will not be held this year. We have held successful competitions for the last six years and hope to be able to continue a future program that will meet the educational goal of supporting grieving people in our community.

The purpose of the contest was to encourage students to express grief or loss issues in writing. Teachers can continue this instruction on their own by reviewing suggested lessons plans found on the coalition web site. Coalition members would be available to assist an educator if needed.
