Submit Assignment: Research Paper

Numerous resources are available in the community and online for people dealing with grief and the loss of a loved one. Write a research paper that discusses:

• The services and programs available to bereaved elders (churches, senior organizations, funeral homes, hospitals)

• Access to these resources and how often they are utilized

• Ways people in need are notified of the resources/programs

• How programs are publicized

• Costs to use the resource/program

• In an appendix, develop a one-page flyer to advertise one of the grief resources you have researched.

  Several excellent online resources that will help you begin your research are GriefNet (GriefNet, n.d.), GriefShare (GriefShare, n.d.), AARP – Grief & Loss (AARP, 2014), and MedlinePlus – Bereavement (MedlinePlus, n.d.).

  Support your statements with evidence from the Required Studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.
