Survivors writing a book on Raising a child in the wake of Suicide

Raising a Child in the Wake of Suicide

A book By

Christopher Lukas

&

Vanessa McGann, Ph.D.

Two survivors of family suicides are embarking on a new book. They are going to tell stories of children, now grown up, who were below the age of 18 when a suicide occurred in their families. They also want to hear from the caretakers (parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, etc.) who were responsible for children when a suicide occurred.

The purpose is to help families and clinicians understand some of the helpful and less than helpful interventions or activities in those families at the time of the suicides, and since.

For a fuller detailed description of their project, and a call for participants from around the world, can be found by clicking here.
