National Grief Awareness Day is dedicated to raising awareness of  the myriad ways in which individuals cope with loss. It offers resources to  those going through personal losses  and reminds us to support people we know who are grieving. 

National 
Grief Awareness Day, founded by  Angie Cartwright in 2014, hopes to encourage open communication on  loss and bereavement and better  inform the public on the facts of grief.
