SOUTH SHORE — People dealing with trauma on the South Side will get a little extra help coping with the emotions from their neighbors on Saturday.

A group of South Shore residents has organized "Love is Here," an event to provide tools to cope with trauma from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday at Rosenblum Park, 7457 S. Euclid Ave.

Lynn Hamilton and Synira Allen will teach how to use yoga, painting, dancing and a healthy diet to help cope with the mental trauma of losing a loved one and the anxiety and depression that can follow.

The group is hoping the event can expand to become a prominent resource in the community.

The event is free and open to the public.
