Grief Support Services

Explore our support groups offered in Maine & Massachusetts. Independent grief services are not affiliated with The Family Restored.

Grief Support Group

The Family Restored has partnered with The Sun Will Rise Foundation to offer grief support groups to anyone who has experienced the death of someone they care about due to substance use (drug/alcohol) or overdose. Through our partnership with The Sun Will Rise, all members of the group will also have access to their private Facebook page, a variety of virtual support groups and information on regular gatherings.
