Browse these articles for advice, resources, and support offered by PSP members, and also visit this grief resources page from Bereaved Families of Ontario for websites, books, videos, podcasts, and meditations to help you or someone close to you through a difficult time.

Note: For folks ages 21–45 who have experienced loss, our members have recommended The Dinner Party, which provides virtual community gatherings aiming to combat the isolation that comes with being among the first in your peer group to lose a parent, sibling, partner, child, or close friend. In particular, The Buddy System can help you pair up with someone who has experienced a loss similar to your own.
