Community Resources
Pomba Branca has identified a network of individual and professionals who offer holistic health therapies often needed by those on the end-of-life and grief journey. They can bring comfort by complementing traditional health services. These can include carers, counseling, acupuncture, yoga, Tai Chi, body and energy work. We can refer you to a provider who can best serve your needs. The services are arranged and paid, by you, directly to the provider. While these providers share Pomba Branca’s vision, they are neither Pomba Branca employees, legally or financially related to Pomba Branca.​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​Become a Companion
What makes our Companionship program valuable is that the benefits flow both ways – between those seeking and those providing the service. The experiencing of listening opens us to others’ stories, while learning to hear without judgment. And the practice of accompanying others provides the satisfaction of connecting our community to build a circle of care.
All you need is the desire to help someone – we will train you to do the rest.​​​​​
