Peer support is at the heart of how we care for grieving families, but what actually happens in these groups, and how do we measure their impact? Good Grief is proud to introduce Peer Support Conceptual Frameworks, a groundbreaking step toward standardizing and understanding grief peer support as a research-informed method of intervention. Developed by Dr. Mrittika Sen, our Head of Research & Evaluation, this work draws from 26 in-depth interviews and grounded theory analysis to uncover the measurable and meaningful processes that take place in peer support groups. Catch Dr. Sen's presentation “Peer Support in Bereavement: In Words (Research) and Action (Evidence)” this week at the NACG 2025 Symposium on Children's Grief: Friday, June 6 at 9:50–10:50 AM in Truman B.
