Healing Conversations Program
Personal support for suicide loss Healing 
Conversations welcomes survivors of suicide 
loss as they are, wherever they are in their 
grief, for a meaningful moment of connection.
Different than a support group, Healing Conversations is a one-time 
visit that connects those who have lost a loved one to suicide with 
trained volunteers who are also survivors of suicide loss. These 
volunteers know what it’s like to lose someone to suicide, and they 
help others navigate this challenging journey by offering support, 
connection, and resources. Whether you’ve lost a partner, family 
member, friend, co-worker, or anyone else to whom you were close, 
Healing Conversations can provide perspective and understanding.
