The W Connection provides peer-to-peer emotional support from women of all ages who understand what it means to lose a spouse. We provide counsel and support based on personal experience, and access to outside resources that have helped each of us through our own losses. We are also looking for peer mentors: If you have been widowed for 2 years or more, please consider providing one on one support to newly widowed women. For questions or more information, contact Bobbie Goldstein or 310-923-2254 or Janice Isenberg.
