Caring Friend volunteers companion individuals who have lost a loved one on our hospice services. The volunteer will complete the bereavement volunteer training and will then be assigned to provide grief support to a newly bereaved person. Meet for coffee, share memories, make a friend. This program has been very rewarding to the volunteers and families currently participating in the Caring Friends Program.
