Many, many people have said that Growing Through Grief was their first connection to understanding that they are not alone in this grief experience and the relief of knowing they are not "crazy" because they are finally around others walking a similar path.

An ongoing support and educational group for people who have experienced the death of a spouse, partner, or significant other. If your loss is recent or years ago, you are welcome to come and spend an evening with others who are on a similar journey. Meets the 2nd Wednesday of every month.
The biggest evidence of program success is the tremendous number of people who are referred to our groups and programs. That tells us we are meeting a need and have people referred by friends, neighbors, clergy, physicians, other grief support organizations, etc. And people keep coming back. So many have told us "I don't know what I would have done without HeartLight Center."

When those we have served share the benefits they have gained by attending our groups. When people refer their friends, family or coworkers to our groups and programs. Knowing that we have helped ease someone's burdens is of key importance to us.

HeartLight Center's signature program - A 4-week interactive support group for people grieving the death of someone loved. The group is designed to help people during the grieving process by using visual and thought provoking tools such as building memorials, journaling, writing letters, and setting goals with milestones.
Since developing this program in 2003, HeartLight Center has offered Facing the Mourning on a regular basis, usually twice a year. One piece of evidence is when people who have participated in the 4-week group tell others about how helpful of an experience it was for them and urge others in our monthly support groups to attend Facing the Mourning.
Several grief support professionals have moved away from the Denver area and have introduced Facing the Mourning to their new communities in other parts of the country.
