Our Black Rose partners with funeral homes and first responders and enables them to distribute free care packages to families who have lost a loved one to suicide.

Providing free care packages to partners ensures support and resources are offered to a family quickly following a loss.

Funeral homes and first responders often know the cause of death from a death certificate even if the family chooses not to publicly acknowledge the death by suicide, can be present at the scene of a suicide following a death, and can be an immediate contact and comfort for the family and/or loved ones.


If you would like to receive and distribute Our Black Rose care packages to families surviving a suicide loss please contact us to receive – free of charge – Our Black Rose care packages.


Our Partners

Partnerships are key to the success of Our Black Rose. We are grateful to the following funeral home and first responder partners and their commitment to be a resource for suicide loss survivors:

  • "I am so impressed and touched by your care packages. I wish I had these references when I lost my brother, but after seeing the resources included, I still found them helpful 8 years later. What you are doing for others is just amazing."

    Judy Ryave, Ralph Schugar Funeral Chapel

  • "Sadly I gave away another Black Rose box to a grieving family. Thank you for what you and your family are doing. I know it is appreciated by the funeral directors and the families."

    – Chris Crompton, John F. Slater Funeral Home
