💜 Overdose Loss Peer Support Grief Group Tonight 💜

August is Overdose Awareness Month.

Grief following an overdose loss can be incredibly complex. There may be unanswered questions, complicated emotions, stigma, and experiences that can be difficult to explain to others.

💙 At WNY Compassion Connection, we recognize the unique nature of overdose loss and approach each person’s grief with sensitivity, compassion, and without judgment.

➡️ Our Overdose Loss Group offers a safe and supportive space to connect with others who understand this kind of loss. You don’t have to explain your grief or have the “right” words. You can simply come as you are. 💜

📅 Every 3rd Tuesday of the month
🕕 6:00–7:30 PM
📍 WNY Compassion Connection
3966 Walden Ave., Lancaster
📞 716-288-7780

If you or someone you love has experienced the loss of a loved one to overdose or substance use, you are welcome here. 💜
