The grief and pain of losing a loved one to violence cannot be measured, nor can healing be given a timeframe for the surviving loved ones. Families and communities are affected by every life taken. How can we heal? It helps to feel supported and to know that you are seen and heard. WCSC will continue to its annual observance of the National Day of Remembrance for Murder Victims (NDRMV) with a  special community event on Sunday, September 25th. Surviving loved ones will be offered safe space to express their feelings, with mindfulness and healing activities. Check out our “What’s Happening” September calendar for more information on this event. Visit our NDRMV.VI Facebook page to post in honor of your loved one. Call our main office/crisis center for information on  support services for surviving loved ones of homicide victims: 340.773.9272.
