Grief Resources
The death of a family member, friend, or other significant person is a life-altering loss for many. We know that community and connection can lessen the feelings of isolation that can come with grief.
The most important thing you can do for a grieving person is to listen. We let the person know that we are here to hold space for their unique journey in processing their loss through listening. There is no quick fix for grief…it must be walked through, but there is great comfort in having a companion on your journey to healing. If you are supporting a grieving person – thank you for being a grief friend! If you want to find other ways to support someone that is bereaved the websites below may be helpful. These national organizations have resources, information and national directories of bereavement service providers.
Warmest Regards,
