The medical examiner has identified you as the next of kin for someone who has died

We are contacting you to offer support and an opportunity to talk.

Our service is listening to you share the story of the person who has died, from your perspective.

Our conversations are not intended to be therapeutic, just an opportunity to talk about the persons who has died.

Your perspective is valuable and we hope to learn more about the lives of people and where support and resources will be the most effective to help others.

After our interviews, people report that they have an improved understanding about the many reasons that contributed to the person’s death.

We have a clear format of discussion topics, for example:

• Describe what made them happy? What were their passions? What was difficult for them? What was their childhood experience? Adolescence? Education? Substance use? Religion? etc …

Some people around you have moved on with life or expect you to be better by now. We offer the space to talk and be heard about a subject that some will try to avoid with you.

Your perspective will give valuable guidance toward the development and timing of resources and programs designed to help people live fulfilling and long lives.
