Survivors share their experience of losing their loved one(s) to homicide & how they move forward on their journey to hope & healing.
I lost my dad on August 5th, 2017, and around those dates, I had just turned 17 and started my senior year of high school. Singing happy birthday to a picture is the worst part; waiting for their return is hard, and it’s most challenging when you realize that they will never come back.
I’m still learning to get pass the dark days all alone. Yet many nights here without you, I wake up to screaming out loud, with a screeching moan. This is a never ending nightmare this has torn me in half.
I’ve learned so many ways to cope with the murder of my son, Jaron, in 2006, thanks to Homicide Survivors and all my HSI ‘family’. One of the most important lessons I learned is to know when to say “it’s okay”.
HSI Staff, community partners, and guest writers share their expertise in the field of victim advocacy, traumatic grief, & more.
Survivors share memories of their loved ones and as the public for any information that may lead to an arrest on their loved one’s case.
Every April, the Office of Victims of Crime (OVC) helps lead communities nationwide in their annual observances of National Crime Victims’ Rights Week (NCVRW) by promoting victims’ rights and honoring crime victims and those who advocate on their behalf.
We invite you to join us from April 21-27, where Homicide Survivors will host events empowering survivors through workshops, survivors’ stories on hope, and our Annual Candlelight Vigil.
Every year, families in our community are shattered by the loss of a loved one to homicide. Please consider joining us this Arizona Gives Day and donating to our cause. Your contribution will ensure we continue to provide services to Survivors, such as advocacy, support and assistance.
