MyGrief.ca complements existing community-based grief supports and helps address the lack of grief resources available, particularly in rural and remote regions. Unique in the world, MyGrief.ca was developed by a national team of researchers, educators, health care providers and family members who have “been there”. Funding was provided by the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer.

MyGrief.ca is organized in 9 sections, making it easy for users to find the information they need:

1. Grieving before the loss
2. Understanding grief
3. How has this loss affected my family and me?
4. Moving through grief
5. Making sense of intense emotions
6. Managing difficult situations
7. Caring for yourself
8. Do I need more help and where do I find it?
9. When life starts to get better
