Illini Offers Grief Recovery Program

Living through grief associated with the loss of a loved one after death or through divorce or separation is a painful experience. The "Life After Loss" support group at Illini Hospital can help you learn to cope. The group will begin its fall session on Thursday, October 3.

Sessions will be held every Thursday from 10-11 a.m., at Crosstown Square, 900 Crosstown Avenue, Silvis. Group discussions are led by an Illini Hospital volunteer chaplain and focus on how to cope with the trauma associated with various types of loss. Any adult experiencing grief is invited to attend the sessions.

There is no charge for this program. For more information contact the HealthQuest office at Illini Hospital at 309-792-4385.
