The National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention (Action Alliance) has produced a landmark report entitled Responding to Grief, Trauma, and Distress After a Suicide: U.S. National Guidelines, the first-ever comprehensive, strategic document outlining how communities can effectively respond to the devastating impact of suicide loss. The National Guidelines, developed by the Action Alliance’s Survivors of Suicide Loss (SOSL) Task Force, paves the way for decisive advances in postvention services, including support for the bereaved after a suicide. As one of 12 Task Force members, Bob joined other leaders in issuing a call to action to strengthen and expand care to meet the needs of the bereaved and others who suffer from the effects of suicide loss.

The Misunderstood podcast aims to disperse the fear, stigma, and silence that cloud topics around mental health. By using stories that shed a personal light on these subjects that so often go unshared, we're putting a voice to problems that become bigger the less we talk about them. Our intent is to move closer—to pay attention, ask good questions, and walk in another’s shoes to get a better understanding of how mental health affects all of us.

Our connections define us, and we can accomplish far more together than we can independently.  I'm therefore happy to support the good efforts of people, organizations and web sites that share a common purpose, and with whom I collaborate in various ways.  Feel free to explore the following links to hear or read interviews with me, see video clips, or learn more about people, projects and products that converge with my interests in loss and the quest for meaning, both in the world of psychotherapy and beyond.
