"Grief is meant to be shared. As human beings, we are wired to find comfort in connection. Mourning together allows us to process loss through shared support of friends, family and community. In times of loss, it is the people who gather around us that help us survive and eventually begin to heal."

Anyone watching the news right now is grieving. Media coverage is saturated with stories of death and tragedy — from mass shootings and war to violence in our own neighborhoods.
