Pausing 1:1 Peer Support Bookings
As we work to clear a high demand for peer-to-peer support, we are temporarily pausing our 1:1 sessions.
Spring groups will be starting soon, so you can expect to hear from us in the next couple of weeks.
We expect to start the 1:1 sessions again by late spring!
We appreciate your understanding. For additional resources you can reach out to info@bfotoronto.ca and we will do our best to respond in a timely manner.
One-to-one Sessions
We offer single session individual support sessions for those eligible for closed groups, and for those who have lost a loved one to suicide, homicide or overdose. Individual support is a place where you can feel safe to share your story with someone who has experienced a similar loss, and is a trained volunteer. This meeting is a chance for you to get some immediate support and also to explore the possibility of joining a mutual support bereavement group.
Support Groups
BFO holds weekly support groups, facilitated by peer volunteers and volunteer professionals. Closed groups are small, closed-membership groups of 8-12 people who have experienced similar losses and want to explore their grief in a confidential, supportive setting. Open groups are available for adults, with group meetings consisting of open discussion.
