Our Purpose
The group was founded as there seems to be a desire to connect with people who understand during this difficult time. This is what one professional said:
„After their death, there were times when I didn’t know how to continue. I have chosen this career to help people and suddenly there was this question if I am responsible for this person’s death. My world was turned upside down, shattered. I yearned for someone who has been in a similar situation to tell me that a life after is possible and I can get through it.”
