SPEAK

Make room for honest conversations about life, death, grief and change.

What Guides Us

Grief is a universal experience, but we do not always know how to talk about it or support someone living with loss. Our work creates opportunities to listen, learn and respond with care.

Grief and loss are part of being human. They can follow a death, a change in health, work or relationships—or the loss of a future we imagined. GIDII brings together memorial services and celebrations of life, grief education and documentary storytelling. Through this work, Kathie Melocco helps people honour lives, speak more openly about loss and support one another with understanding and care.
