Telephone Bereavement Support

 

Palliative Manitoba offers one-to-one telephone support by trained volunteers for grieving individuals throughout Manitoba.

This program offers a safe environment to grieving individuals where they can speak openly about their feelings. Each individual can expect to receive a weekly call from a trained volunteer once a match has been made. Each call can be up to one hour in length and a match can last for 12 – 15 months

Please note this is not a 24-hour service or a crisis line. This is not a professional counseling service but rather a friendly support program. Clients must self-refer and will then undergo an intake call to determine suitability for the program. Following that, clients will be matched with a volunteer. This process may take several weeks depending on the availability of volunteers.

Please call our office for more information or to sign up for service at 204-889-8525 ext. 225.

If you are in crisis please contact the Klinic Crisis Line at 204-786-8686.
