OUR STORY
RICHARD LAMBERT FOUNDATION FAMILY GRIEF & HEALING CENTER
The Counseling and Grief Support Center is now offering monthly grief support meetings supervised by a professional grief counselor on the second Wednesday of each month from 6:30-8:00pm. Located at 143 S. 2nd Pl. Brighton, CO 80601. Meetings are open to all community members at no charge. A $10.00 donation is suggested. Facing loss and grief is sometimes a very scary and painful experience. We will provide you with a safe and comforting place to share these feelings, with peers that are currently or have previously “walked in your shoes”. When you feel like there’s no one that “gets it”, we are here for you. Please RSVP to each meeting to Susan, by text or calling 303-875-2347.
February Topic:
Growing Stronger Through the Stages of Grieving Losing someone you love often makes you feel like you’ve been punched in the stomach and you’re gasping for air. While there are many ups and downs in the process of healing through your grief, it is possible to grow stronger each day and to learn how to become more resilient as each day passes. With time we begin to see how suffering loss and moving forward into healing has made us stronger and more able to face head-on future challenges that will surface.
March
A new 5 week spring workshop will start on Wednesday March 11, 2015. To learn more about the Richard Lambert Foundation Family Grief & Healing Center, visit www.richardlambertfoundation.org. Partnering with Karl Shackelford a Clinical Chaplain from Peaks & Creeks Life Development

The Richard Lambert Memorial Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization was founded September 5, 2013 by Susan and Jaime Chavez, in honor their son. Tuesday September 4, 2012 was the day that changed my life forever, when we lost Richard unexpectedly at the age of 26. The biggest fallacy statements that get bounded around is “time heals” and “you need to move on”. Don’t get me wrong, I wanted to be “healed”. I clung desperately to God and others that had experienced the loss of a child. We started weekly one on one grief counseling with an amazing grief counselor as well as attended grief support workshops. Time and time again I would ask our counselor and others that had lost a child....”When will I not feel like this?” It was a dark, hopeless and suffocating pit. I thought it impossible that I would ever feel any different after losing my first born, my baby boy that I fell in love with the moment he entered this world, my buddy, my friend, the son I raised into a wonderful young man and who I was so proud to call my son. They kept telling me that time and work would help my healing. Well they were right, time lessens the sting. You just have to get up each morning and hope something or someone gives you a glimmer that gets you through the day. Since our loss, we have met multitudes of individuals and families that cannot afford counseling to assist in their healing process. I would never have made the progress that I have if it weren’t for consistent counseling and the support and connections that we have made through grief workshops. It is our passion and within our hearts to assist families in our community that are in need of counseling and grief services, giving you support, renewed strength and hope for the future. Additionally, we will connect you with a trained volunteer facilitator that has experienced the same loss and understands exactly what you are feeling and experiencing. We are driven by the loss and love for our son and we want you to know that you are not alone in your grief. We share a common bond. Richard Lambert Foundation will honor the memory of your loved one by providing you with a safe and supportive place to express your feelings in a safe and healthy manner.
