Annual Holiday Campaign
The truth is that the impact of traumatic loss has reached crisis levels in our community resulting in a substantial number of people struggling with the effects of traumatic grief.
In the past year alone, CRHS has encountered an overwhelming 81% increase in requests for support from those impacted by sudden traumatic losses related to suicide, drug overdose and unexpected deaths. These individuals and families range from children to adults.
Complicated traumatic grief is a mental health crisis that can evolve into severe complications if not treated promptly by professionals specializing in this type of grief.
Statistics show that a child or youth who experiences suicide within their family unit has a 50% chance of considering suicide themselves. This is a tragic risk for our community and is something we take very seriously. Read more
Hospice Care
Many people are not aware that Hospice Care reaches further than our end-of-life services. We also offer a significant amount of support to those who are grieving the loss of a loved one or a furry companion. Currently, our community who are our neighbors and friends are impacted by a significant amount of traumatic loss associated with suicide or drug overdose. Due to this crisis, we are focused on securing funding to build a robust traumatic grief children's and youth program to reduce the cycle of suicide in our young community.
