Suicide bereavement in men
Suicide bereavement can have a substantial psychosocial burden on men. Therefore, formal services such as counseling and support groups may be particularly important for them.

However, articulating and quantifying these outcomes presents ethical and logistical challenges. Funders' priorities may differ from those of service users. To discern the value and explore effective measurement of postvention outcomes, focus groups were co…
