About

GLADD (Grieving Loss After Death and Dying) is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to one simple but powerful mission: ensuring that no one has to grieve alone.

Grief doesn't end after the funeral, yet that's often when support begins to disappear. GLADD exists to bridge that gap by providing compassionate, ongoing resources for individuals and families navigating the loss of a loved one.

Our services include a free 24/7 grief support hotline, live virtual grief classes led by experienced grief professionals, peer support groups, educational resources, and an online community where people can connect with others who truly understand their journey. Whether someone experienced a recent loss or has been carrying grief for years, GLADD provides a safe space for healing, hope, and connection.

We believe grief is not something to "get over"—it's something people learn to carry with support, understanding, and community. Through partnerships with healthcare providers, funeral homes, businesses, first responders, community organizations, and advocates, GLADD is working to transform the way grief support is delivered across the country.

Every conversation, every class, and every connection reinforces our commitment to ensuring that no one has to face grief in isolation.

Because no one should have to grieve alone.
