Losing my dad to suicide has by far been the most painful and isolating experience of my life. I originally founded Growing Out Of Darkness based on my desire to donate copies of Growing Through Grief to anyone in need. I firmly believe that no one should have to pay to feel supported or to know that they are not alone in this journey. We are in this together.
