Resources in your community:

Depending on where you are located, you may have access to grief counselors, hospices, grief centers, and many other community resources. To search resources available in your community, head over to Google or Google Maps and type your city name and the type of resources you're looking for.  For example, the map below represents a search we conducted to find "Baltimore grief centers". Look for as many community grief support resources as you can easily find.

For children, teens, and young adults:

If a child, teen, or young adult is impacted by the death, the Moyer Foundation's Resource Center offers a great tool for locating community and online resources.

We also recommend the website for the National Alliance for Grieving Children where you can search for resource listings by state.
