The National Widowers’ Organization is a men’s grief network. Our website serves as a virtual toolkit of free resources for men coping with the death of a loved one. It’s a place where men can meet others going through the same transition. If there’s one loss that men could use a little help from their friends to cope with, it’s the death of a spouse, a lover, a parent, a child, or a lifelong friend. And it’s often help that only other men can provide.
Founded to Serve Widowers and Grieving Men
Our website offers guidance, connection and support. Explore practical resources, find local and online groups, read personal stories and access helpful tools designed to ease the challenges of life after loss — available whenever you need them.
