About this event

Marble statue grief


On National Grief Awareness Day, we acknowledge that the experience of grief touches all humans.

Grief is a normal response to a loss

The experience of grief touches all humans. When someone suffers the loss of a loved one, they experience a range of emotions as they mourn what was lost and begin to navigate their own unique grief journey.

Grief is important

The loss of someone close causes a wide range of emotions. It is important to honor and express these emotions in order to move forward in a healthy manner. Grief is not something to “get over” or ignore. It is in working through grief that one begins to process the loss they have experienced. They develop healthy coping mechanisms, and, in time, it is how they honor and remember the relationship with their loved one.

Grief is unique to the individual

Each person’s grief journey is unique. There is no right or wrong way to grieve, but it is important to have a safe and supportive environment in which to express your grief.
