- Grieving the Death of A Loved One
This group program is for those who have experienced recent deaths of family, friends, or colleagues. It is free-of-charge and is facilitated by Eileen Joyce, Certified Coach and Grief Recovery Specialist with 25 years of experience. The group is sponsored by the Memory Care Alliance and is free of charge to participants.
The purpose of this program is to learn and share in a confidential setting. Each week we will discuss grief and loss and how they affect daily life and relationships.
Meetings over the six weeks will cover:
- Losses and how we deal with them
- The myths about grief, loss, and healing
- How unresolved grief affects our capacity for happiness
- Creating resilience even in times of greatest challenges
Please contact Eileen to reserve your place: email or call .

The team at the NM Aging & Long-Term Services Department has shared the following resources with us.
Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC)
The Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) is one “hub” that can navigate people in the right direction.
Veteran-Directed Care Program
Veteran-Directed Care gives Veterans of all ages the opportunity to receive the Home and Community Services they need in a consumer-directed way. The flyer provides more details and contact information.
New Mexicare
New MexiCare provides financial assistance and training to caregivers who are assisting friends or family members with daily activities due to physical or cognitive limitations. The goal of the program is to allow older adults to thrive in their homes and communities as an alternative to nursing home placements and to help reduce emergency department visits.
