SPACE for Changing Families is one of National Council of Jewish Women, Greater Detroit Section’s largest community service programs. SPACE for Changing Families was established in 1978 to assist individuals and families in transition.

Today, more than 200 individuals are served each year through this vital community service. SPACE offers educational support groups for all families and family members. Some groups are structured, while others are not. SPACE support groups are affective because they are made up of people experiencing a similar situation.

SPACE offers Bereavement support groups for adults.

Other workshops and support groups are developed as needs emerge.

A trained, caring facilitator leads each group session. Safe structured groups in which participants and facilitators work together for four to ten consecutive weeks begin every few months.   

SPACE works in coalition with 15 other community agencies to educate the community regarding bereavement issues. SPACE also offers specialized services to community groups, schools, synagogues and churches, and training to corporations.

For more information or to enroll in any of the groups SPACE offers, please call (248) 355-9936.

SPACE for Changing Families is a non-sectarian service. The majority of funding comes from the National Council of Jewish Women, Greater Detroit Section. Funding is also received from the DeRoy Testamentary Fund, donations, tributes and participant fees..
