Willow House...where hope lives.

We’re glad you found us. At Willow House, we know that the death of a mom, dad, sister or brother is a life-altering experience for young families. If you are grieving the death of a family member, we hope you will find some support on this site.  Willow House is here to provide and develop supportive services for children, teens, families and communities who are coping with death and dying. 

Willow House groups are offered at three locations in Chicago’s northwest suburbs and one location in Chicago. These are not therapy groups, but rather peer support groups. They provide a forum in which shared experiences and mutual support benefit all group members, providing hope and support in a safe and non-judgmental setting. Willow House also offers community outreach, educational resources and referrals for individual and family counseling. Explore our Web site to find out more about Willow House and its support services for bereaved families. Check the calendar to confirm which dates support groups meet at the various locations.
