Jewish Family Services of Western Massachusetts is offering a free online program called “Building Resilience from Within” on Zoom, starting on March 19. Led by mindfulness educator Reina Goldberg, the program aims to help caregivers, older adults, and anyone experiencing stress by providing simple techniques to reduce stress, build resilience, and restore balance. Participants of all ages can join, and each session is recorded for convenience. Registration is required by calling 413-737-2601 or visiting the JFS website.
In addition, Rick’s Place offers free grief support groups for youth and their caregivers, Cancer support groups led by Baystate Health, NAMI support groups for mental health, and a support group by the Michael J.
