LOSS TEAMS

Hope and Support After Suicide Loss

When a suicide occurs, those left behind often face overwhelming grief, unanswered questions, and isolation.

LOSS Teams provide compassionate, immediate support from people who

understand and can help survivors take the first steps toward healing.

UNDERSTANDING LOSS TEAMS

Support From People Who Understand

A LOSS Team - Local Outreach to Suicide Survivors - provides compassionate support and practical resources to individuals and families after a suicide loss.

LOSS Team members help survivors know they are not alone, connect them with helpful resources, and offer support from people who understand the unique journey of suicide loss.

You Do Not Have to Navigate Loss Alone

The journey after a suicide loss can feel overwhelming, isolating, and difficult to understand. There is no single way to grieve and no timetable for healing.

Connection with people who understand can help make the journey feel less lonely. Through compassionate support, helpful resources, and community connection, our goal is to help survivors know that they do not have to navigate the road ahead alone.

You deserve support. You deserve compassion. And you do not have to carry your grief alone.
