Edmarc offers one-on-one support for bereaved families including home visits and telephone calls, as well as customized educational materials about the grief process for each family, based on their needs. The Bereavement Program Director reaches out to families on significant anniversaries such as the child’s birthday, date of death, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and around holidays. Some of the services featured in our bereavement program include:
