“Race and Class (and many other factors) influence our perception of what is “acceptable” around grief…how we experience it, what losses matter, how we manage it, who deserves our grief, who gets supported, and the look of mourning and celebration.

We expect respectability, but why?” ~Dr. Jamie

Our definition of grief: What we feel and how we respond to loss, change, and transition.

Together, we are:

Cultivating awareness about grief.

Creating space for real people, real stories.

Considering the impact of race and class on our grief expressions and experiences.

Constructing empathetic and equitable approaches to grief support, especially for the disenfranchised and marginalized.

Co-creating rituals and more.

Stay Tuned!
