Review for Alliance of Hope for Suicide Loss Survivors, Evanston, IL, USA
I lost my son to suicide. Sorry, I just didn't find the organization was very helpful. I understand they need donations, but felt that was the center of the organization, not actually helping people. The forum was difficult to use. If you wanted to talk with some one, counseling was $75/hour.
I just felt overall the site and people, were condescending.
Losing some one to suicide, shouldn't be about the money.
Hi Michelle, I’m so sorry for the loss of your son and that you did not find AOH helpful. I hope you find the healing support you need. As you can see from the hundreds of 5-star reviews on this site, your experience is unusual. The Alliance of Hope serves thousands of loss survivors and many call our forum their “lifeline.” We provide extremely cost-effective postvention support, but like any nonprofit, we need to raise funds to sustain our services. Perhaps you joined at a time when we were asking for our community’s support. We are deeply grateful for the individuals and organizations whose partnership has allowed us to expand our services for survivors over the last decade. Without them, we would not exist. We wish you the best in your healing journey.
