Support Groups
Our SOSL Support Groups provide a comfortable, non-threatening setting to share your experiences and thoughts. Or you may just want to listen. But being with those who have had a similar experience, who can understand in a special way, is a gift the group shares with one another, a gift that may not be available elsewhere.
Anyone who has lost a family member or friend is invited to attend. All groups are free of charge and no prior registration is needed. All of the groups listed on the calendar are conducted by SOSL and are not affiliated with the venue listed, e.g. hospital, community center, church, etc. Read more.
For more information about any of the groups, please call 619-482-0297 or email info@SOSLsd.org.
