This is a safe, culturally grounded space to come together and share, talk, and learn about grief. Participants are welcome to simply listen and be in the space with others, or to share if and when they feel comfortable. Loss affects us all, and there is no single way to move through it. This circle is open to NFN Members and Affiliates, seeking connection, healing, and a reminder that they are not alone. Please note there is no virtual option at this time.
