Only 18% of US #funeralhomes list their #pricing online, making informed decisions hard. Great article on the topic by one of our own @Effielinn! Effie is on our Communications Committee & she advocates for greater #transparency in #funeral pricing. https://t.co/VlFlKHqkt8

“The parent of someone under 18 dies every 22 minutes in the UK”👉#Kids grieve too. Bereavement lessons help them process loss & support others in developing #empathy. We hope to see more initiatives like this one & we value child-friendly #grief resources https://t.co/OzagxDACdN

It’s #MIAW to learn about mental illness & reduce its stigma including at work. #Cemeteries are high-stress #workplaces & can cause employees #depression & #burnout. This week we're considering how we can help. Let’s make resources accessible & speak openly so no one feels alone.
