Description: 

This manual provides a comprehensive overview of establishing and facilitating a suicide bereavement support group. It was written by Linda L. Flatt from material she gathered for one of the first websites for survivors, www.survivingsuicide.com. Linda writes, "The material in this guidebook was gathered over several years and comes from many excellent sources -– all are cited and used with permission of the author. I’ve also interjected some
of the personal reflections that I wrote while trying to make sense of [my son] Paul’s suicide. Some writings are spiritual in nature, because it was my faith that helped me to heal. I offer them as a perspective for others who struggle with their faith in the aftermath of a suicide."
