There is a monthly meeting here. It's a church group in New Castle. If you can't go there, call and ask them for others in the area.

There is a page to search from called Griefshare you can enter a zip code. There were three places within 20 miles of 16102.

 

You can call some of your local churches, hospitals, United Way, or check at the front of your phone book for support groups listed. 

 

Check with Lawrence County Agencies for the Aging who may know names and locations, they can also tell you what is available to help you if you need transportation ot other assistance.

 

Even local funeral homes often are aware of some local support groups. For online support you can search for groups on Yahoo such as this one or search for others.

 

You can talk to us. Sometimes it helps to write about what you are going through. I hope others might answer with their ideas too.
