Grieving the loss of a loved one is one of life's most difficult and challenging experiences. Community Home Health & Hospice offers ongoing grief support groups for children, teens, and adults. We are continually recruiting volunteers to assist in these groups.
All potential volunteers complete an application, background check, and free on-line training.
Please consider volunteering with us - you will NEVER regret your decision.
Please note: This is NOT a virtual volunteer opportunity. Our bereavement volunteers meet in person during the grief groups {October - mid-June} which are held twice a month. We adhere to current Washington State and CDC guidelines regarding masks and social distancing.
Please go on our website {www.chhh.org} to complete the volunteer application. After review of the application you will be contacted to come and meet with a staff member.
