Community Education
Mourning Hope provides education, assistance, training and networking to the community. Staff and trained volunteers give presentations to community groups such as schools, businesses, churches, associations and healthcare entities.
Outreach to schools includes working with teachers and administrators when there is a death or life-threatening illness in the school. Mourning Hope collaborates with crisis intervention teams to support students and faculty. For information on our school-based grief support groups, visit this page.
