Young Adults, ages 18-25, Grieving a Death Loss Need to Get this App

A New App is available for Young Adults, ages 18-25, Grieving a Death Loss, and for the Professionals who serve them

Presented by Actively Moving Forward®, a HealGrief® program. HealGrief® is a registered 501c3 nonprofit organization

In the United States, research suggests one in three college students experience the death of a family member or close friend in any 12-month period. With nearly 20 million students enrolled in American universities in 2019 and the number of traumatic crises ever-increasing in communities and on college campuses, that means that at any given moment, more than 6.6 million college students are grieving a death loss.

The AMF App has been created for young adults, aged 18-25 who are grieving a death loss, to connect on a whole new level. The app is a tool to find support, deepen connections, engage with groups, find events, webinars, and a host of other valuable and helpful resources. Users must first register using the link below to verify and protect the safety of all users.

The AMF app is available in the App Store on iOS and the Play Store on Android devices. Once registered, new community members will receive download and sign up instructions.

Grief support is essential for young adults, ages 18-25. The ability to process grief and adapt to a new normal after a death loss leads to improved grades, higher graduation rates and the ability to maintain strong personal and professional bonds with family, friends and the community at large.

The mission of HealGrief® is to provide a social support network offering tools and resources to support a healthy post-bereavement growth. Actively Moving Forward® (AMF), a HealGrief® program, is specifically for young adults ages 18-25.
