Heal Grief: Building Virtual Community

Many people believe that grief can be completed and that when it is, we will have closure. We will no longer need to remember and think about the person we've lost. But more and more, we are recognizing that remembering our person and sharing our grief is a healthy way forward. As a response to her own loss, Fran Solomon founded Heal Grief, establishing on line program designed to connect grievers at every stage of life. Seeing an unmet need for young people to share their grief she established the program Actively Moving Forward. The program recognizes that one in three young adults is grieving and that young grievers have often moved to college or out into life without the crucial support needed to thrive. How powerful to connect grievers through an app which can be accessed anywhere! We'll be talking about this program, and all of the Heal Grief platforms insuring that no one has to grieve alone.
