The holiday season can bring up complicated emotions when you’re grieving the loss of someone you love. Traditions may feel different, memories can surface unexpectedly, and there can be pressure to participate or “be okay” during a time that doesn’t always feel joyful.
Coping with Grief During the Holidays is a one-time, two-hour support group facilitated by Arielle Arbushites, MSW, LSW, CPLC, ACHP-SW. This group offers a warm, supportive space to connect with others who understand the experience of navigating grief during the holiday season.
Together, participants will have space to share and reflect while exploring gentle, practical ways to cope with grief, care for themselves, navigate holiday expectations and traditions, and honor the people they are missing.
There is no expectation to share more than you are comfortable with. Come as you are and take what you need from the space.

A Latine-inspired Friendsgiving celebrating food, gratitude, storytelling, and community.
This November, Cafecito y Chisme is gathering around the table for something a little different!
In many Latine households, food is more than nourishment. It’s how we show love, preserve traditions, share memories, and connect across generations. And sometimes, the best conversations happen long after the meal is over. We call that la sobremesa.
Join us for a cozy, community-centered potluck where we’ll explore gratitude, belonging, and the traditions that shape us.
What to Expect
Potluck de Corazón | A Potluck From the Heart
Bring a favorite dish, family recipe, or comfort food that represents a piece of your story. Whether it’s something passed down through generations or something you’ve made your own, all dishes are welcome. Bringing food is encouraged but not required.
La Historia de Mi Plato | Every Dish Has a Story
Behind every meaningful dish is a memory. We’ll invite participants to share the stories, traditions, and connections behind the food they bring.
El Mantel de Gratitud | A Table Full of Gratitude
Together, we’ll create a communal tablecloth filled with words, drawings, affirmations, and reflections. A reminder that gratitude can exist alongside challenges, growth, grief, and everything in between.
Sobremesa y Chisme | Stay a Little Longer
Grab some cafecito, settle in, and enjoy meaningful conversations about family, chosen family, cultural expectations, gratitude, and what it means to belong.
A Space for Gratitude, Without the Pressure
Gratitude doesn’t mean overlooking difficult experiences or pretending everything is perfect. This gathering invites us to appreciate what has supported us while honoring the complexities of our individual stories.
Whether you’re coming with friends, family, or on your own, you’re welcome here.
Admission: $10 per person
Includes facilitated activities, cafecito, and community connection. Potluck contributions are completely optional. Please label shared dishes with ingredients and common allergens.
Siempre hay un lugar para ti en nuestra mesa.
Come as you are, bring what you can, and stay for the chisme.

Wednesdays at 5:00 PM | 4-Week Mini-Series
Grab your cafecito, pull up a chair, and come ready for a little chisme.
In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Cafecito y Chisme is a four-week community series created for Latines (he/she/they) in our community to gather, connect, laugh, reflect, and celebrate our culture and the experiences that bring us together.
Because sometimes the best conversations begin over a cup of coffee.
Each Wednesday, we'll explore a different theme through guided conversations, interactive activities, cultural reflection, storytelling, and opportunities to connect. Each gathering will build on the one before it, creating a space where we can get to know one another, form meaningful connections, and explore what culture, identity, family, wellness, and community mean to us.
You don't need to have the perfect words or feel pressured to share more than you're comfortable with. This is a space to come as you are, meet new people, enjoy good conversation, and, of course, share some laughs and a little chisme along the way.
Whether you come for the cafecito, the conversation, the activities, or simply because you're looking for more comunidad, there's a seat at the table for you.
Four Wednesdays. Four conversations. One comunidad.

Agarra tu cafecito, toma asiento y ven a compartir un poquito de chisme.
En celebración del Mes de la Herencia Hispana, Cafecito y Chisme es una serie comunitaria de cuatro semanas creada para que Latines (el, ella, ellos) de nuestra comunidad puedan reunirse, conectar, reír, reflexionar y celebrar nuestra cultura y las experiencias que nos unen.
Porque a veces las mejores conversaciones comienzan con una taza de café.
Cada miércoles exploraremos un tema diferente a través de conversaciones guiadas, actividades interactivas, reflexión cultural, historias y oportunidades para conectar. Cada encuentro continuará la conversación de la semana anterior, creando un espacio donde podamos conocernos mejor, formar nuevas conexiones y explorar juntes lo que significan para nosotres la cultura, la identidad, la familia, el bienestar y la comunidad.
No tienes que llegar con las palabras perfectas ni compartir más de lo que quieras. Este es un espacio para venir tal como eres, conocer a otras personas, disfrutar de buena conversación y, por supuesto, compartir unas risas y un poquito de chisme.
Ya sea que vengas por el cafecito, la conversación, las actividades o simplemente porque quieres encontrar más comunidad, hay un lugar en la mesa para ti.
Cuatro miércoles. Cuatro conversaciones. Una comunidad.
