Good Grief Program:
Nature Walking for Grief and Loss

Register

Come walk with us.

This summer, take a walk—alongside, not away from—your grief or loss, through the calming scenery of Fish Creek Provincial Park. In partnership with Mount Royal University Professor Sonya Jakubec and Alberta Parks, the Good Grief program runs for eight weeks on Wednesdays from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m., starting July 2.

Good Grief can provide valuable connection and healing through grief, loss, or major life transition. Over the program’s duration, you’ll have the chance to connect with nature and with participants experiencing similar things.
