Mutual support groups whose members are people who have experienced the loss of a family member, friend or other loved one as a result of murder or homicide. Those seeking support for their grief and loss may have been traumatized by the violent nature of the loss, intrusion of law enforcement, the press and others into their grief and by the realization that someone has deliberately taken the life of a loved one. The groups meet in-person, by telephone or via the Internet; and focus on helping participants overcome feelings of anger and pain so they can express their grief, move through the bereavement process and put their lives back together.
