Grief Programs & Events

One of our primary missions this year is to connect everyone in Davidson County to helpful resources that are available throughout our community. One way we’re doing that is through our Community Connections Podcast.

Through these podcasts, will be introducing you to people who are experts and influential in providing critical services available throughout Davidson County. From caregiver support and grief counseling to estate planning, volunteering, and healthcare, these are just some examples of the topics we will be covering.

Hosted by Hospice of Davidson County’s own Cole Warner and co-host Emmalee Thomas, each podcast will bring you a wealth of information about a variety of topics.

The podcast is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and by clicking here for our Community Connections page.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we work, how we live, and especially how we grieve. We can change some things, like how we shop, or how we engage others face-to-face through social distancing. But grief doesn’t change. If you’ve recently lost a loved one, you know that the grief you’re facing is real, and nothing about COVID-19 is changing that.

Caregiving is a challenging role that is draining and often underappreciated. Most caregivers have to dive in with no training and little support. Held the third Tuesday of every month, the Caregiver Academy provides practical education and support one class at a time, so you can be a confident, courageous and competent caregiver for your loved one. These free classes are taught by community experts and are open to those who provide care to their family members.

NOTE: All classes are conducted virtually. You will receive access to each class upon registration. Click here to view the Caregiver Academy flyer.
