As I've done in years past, I will be searching throughout the season for helpful articles and reliable resources that I can recommend and share with my readers.
Below are links to those resources I’ve gathered so far this year, which I hope you will find informative and useful. Over the next several weeks I’ll be building upon this list each day, so I encourage you to check back often to see what’s been added.
Remember, too, that at this time of year, many hospices offer special community-based grief programs to guide participants in navigating the holidays while still honoring their loved ones. Contact your local hospice's bereavement services department to learn what may be available in your community.
As always, if you've found something especially helpful that isn't listed here, please feel free to add it in the Comments section below.
