The Healing Hearts is a free group for families who have ever lost a child, delivered a stillborn or had a miscarriage. Meet with other families that have suffered a loss. We are parents living through the grief process together. Come and share experiences, coping skills and comfort methods. Family members and close friends (support) are welcome. For questions or information on meeting times, dates and places, we can be contacted at thehealinghearts.tooele@yahoo.com or call Tammie Brown at 843-9531.
