Sadly, people from all
over New York City have lost family members to gun violence. When a life is
lost, families want to ensure that their loved one’s name is not forgotten. Many
of them stop by our office to find out how they can honor the lives lost; some do so by connecting to others in similar situations and some even start their own
foundations. In the fall of 2012 the Crown Heights Community Mediation Center
decided to create a record of all of the resources that support families’
grieving and rebuilding process.
This list is a work in progress, so please contact Ariana Siegel at siegelar@crownheights.org or call 718-773-6886 if you know of additional organizations that should be included.
The list is organized
into several sections to categorize organizations, and includes:
- Organizations supporting family members of homicide victims
- Organizations founded by family members of homicide victims
- Support for Starting a Non-Profit
- Resources and support in the grieving process
This list is a work in progress, so please contact Ariana Siegel at siegelar@crownheights.org or call 718-773-6886 if you know of additional organizations that should be included.
