As Victims and Survivors of Crime Week comes to a close, the conversations, and the need for support continue.

This week has highlighted the realities faced by individuals and families impacted by homicide, as well as the importance of compassion, connection, and trauma-informed support.

Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a story.

Support for homicide survivors doesn’t begin and end in one week. It’s ongoing, and it takes awareness, compassion, and action from all of us.

Moving forward, you can make a difference by:

• Learning about victim services and supports in your community
• Listening to and believing those who share their experiences
• Sharing resources that may help others
• Continuing to educate yourself about grief, trauma and its impacts

If you’re in a position to do so, you can also donate to support our work directly with victims and survivors crcvc.ca/donate

Even small actions can contribute to a more informed, supportive community.
What is one thing you’re taking away from this week?

Losing a loved one to homicide can be isolating, overwhelming, and life-changing.

Grief after violent loss affects every part of a person’s life, emotionally, mentally, and physically. Many survivors experience trauma, anxiety, difficulty sleeping, or feelings of disconnection and isolation.

Support and connection can make a meaningful difference.

CRCVC’s Homicide Support Group provides a safe, virtual space for family members, friends, and loved ones across Canada who are navigating the impacts of homicide loss.

Participants can connect with others who understand violent loss, share experiences without judgment, and access support in coping with grief and trauma.

You do not have to navigate this alone.

Our Homicide Support Group meets virtually on the last Thursday of every month from 6:30–8:30 PM EST.
