About Calm Waters: The mission of Calm Waters is to help individuals in their grief journey caused by death, divorce, or other significant loss. Calm Waters Support Groups are not counseling services, but a program that provides emotional support while working through the natural grieving process. Our goal is to teach healthy coping skills to participants. Calm Waters Grief Support Groups are secure environments where individuals can safely express feelings of grief and loss, thus facilitating the process of healing. Calm Waters is of the belief that every person deserves the opportunity to grieve in a supportive and understanding environment. Our society often fails to understand the needs of anyone who has been separated from a loved one through death, divorce, or other significant loss. Based on these beliefs, the principles of Calm Waters are: Grief is the natural reaction to the loss of a loved one through death, divorce or other significant loss. Within each individual is the capacity to heal one’s self. The duration and intensity of grief are unique for each individual. Children experience grief and loss differently than adults.
