eMotion Walking Community for Bereaved Parents and Families (week 4)

eMotion Walking Group

May 21st at 6pm (Location pending, but will be in Elk Grove, Ca.)

The Movement Community Experience

The Movement Community is a free 8-week, in-person group experience for people who are living with a life-disrupting loss of a person. It combines movement—like walking, hiking, or biking—with intentional grief support, held in community with others who get it. Each group includes 15–20 grievers and is guided by a trained E-Motion Facilitator. The group meets weekly, and participants are expected to attend 80% of gatherings.
