Resource Designed for Faith-Based Groups Offers Hope and Healing for Those Grieving Suicide Loss
NEWARK, Del. -- The Christian Association for Survivors of Suicide Loss (CASSL), a 501(c)3 nonprofit, announces the much-anticipated release of the second edition of its acclaimed resource, Moving Forward: A Christian Study for Survivors of Suicide Loss. This updated study is designed for use in small groups or personal study.
Suicide remains a global and national concern. Each year, approximately 720,000 people die by suicide worldwide. In the United States, suicide rates have reached record highs, with 49,000 deaths in 2023 alone. For every suicide, it is estimated that at least 135 people are left behind to grapple with complex grief and trauma, suggesting that over 6.6 million loss survivors are created annually in the United States alone. These survivors are often overwhelmed with feelings of shock, guilt, and isolation, and are themselves at higher risk for suicide. Faith-based support can play a pivotal role in the offering comfort, understanding, and hope in community.
