Resources

We are working on compiling a comprehensive list of resources. The first of these documents was written in collaboration with the Soaring Spirits Loss Foundation:

• Newly Widowed Checklist

Soaring Spirits Loss Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating a national support network for people grieving the loss of someone they love. Founded by people who have personally experienced either the death of a spouse, or the death of a parent, our leadership is committed to implementing programs that reach out to a variety of communities across the country. We have several web based programs, and two annual events focused on supporting people who have lost of a spouse. SSLF hosts a large database of resources designed to provide practical tools and useful information for people who have experienced any type of loss. Our database is regularly updated, and new information is added monthly. All of our programs are based on the concept of peer-based support, we offer no formal counseling and do not have any therapists or counselors on staff. We help each other to heal by telling our stories, and being available to listen when an understanding ear is needed. Please visit us at www.sslf.org.
