Suicide Bereavement Support Groups: A Guide (Guide)
The Centre for Suicide Prevention and the Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention have developed a resource guide for organizations and group facilitators who are currently operating or interested in starting a suicide bereavement group. Suicide Bereavement Support Groups: A Guide shares strategies and best practices for facilitating safe and effective closed bereavement support groups. The guide covers important topics, such as confidentiality, setting expectations, considerations for setting up a group, facilitation and trauma-informed facilitation, conflict resolution, evaluation, and self-care.
Suicide grief is unique: people who have lost someone to suicide experience grief that can be more complicated than the grief following other types of loss.
