Jewish Family & Community Services is now offering a 10-week survivors of suicide support group for those who have lost a loved one to suicide.

The group will meet from noon to 1 p.m. every other Monday for 10 weeks beginning June 3 at the Jewish Community Center of Youngstown, 505 Gypsy Lane.

To register contact Laura at 330-746-7929, ext. 243 orlhaas@jewishyoungstown.org.

There is a limit of 10 participants, who will meet in this closed group every other week for 10 weeks.

Losing a loved one to suicide is a painful and complex experience that can leave survivors grappling with intense emotions, questions, and feelings of isolation.

This support group provides a safe and understanding space for individuals who have lost someone to suicide.

This support group is made possible in partnership with the Mahoning County Mental Health & Recovery Board.

Jewish Family & Community Services meets the social service needs of the community through diverse programs and services including guardianships, counseling, senior outreach, and home delivered meals.
