Dr. Edwin Shneidman’s concept of “postvention as prevention” has governed Dr. Frank Campbell’s
work with survivors of suicide since 1986. Dr. Campbell envisioned a “LOSS Team”, a team of trained survivors
who would go to the scenes of suicides to disseminate information about resources and be the installation of hope
for the newly bereaved. Read more about LOSS Team here.
