Beginning in October 2024 Support for Those Going Through Life-Altering Illnesses
The Serious Illness Program was created to offer support, solace, and assistance to people going through a life-altering serious illness, one that may or may not have a terminal prognosis. The program offers one-on-one volunteer services, support groups with others who have a serious illness, as well as opportunities to learn more about what resources are available in the community.
Our Peer Support Groups are a place where folks can get together and openly share their experiences with others who truly understand. We offer a safe space to share personal experiences, feelings, coping strategies, and also allow for shared learning. Support groups are both online and in-person.
Our trained volunteers offer emotional support and a listening ear, companionship, help around the house, transportation for appointments, support for appointments and treatments, and more…
The Serious Illness Program is for people in Windham County and bordering NH towns. All services are free of charge and fully confidential. We do not provide medical care.
To sign up for a support group, or to learn more about the Serious Illness Program call Eileen Glover, Program Coordinator, at 802-257-0775 x106 or email at eileen.glover@brattleborohospice.org.
