2019 Annual Nov Seminar

About the Event

From the inception of Women Alone Together, providing opportunities for women to deal with loss has been a key objective. A Saturday morning before the holidays with a counselor soon became an annual event. Women come or bring friends who have experienced the recent loss of a loved one or a painful change in circumstance. Some come to acknowledge that pain that always lingers. We do this with those who understand it is a part of who we are now. We leave with peace and perhaps a new perspective. We are grateful for the company of others.
