What is National Grief Support Services, Incorporated?
NGSS is a 501c3 non-profit corporation based in Los Angeles with a mission to provide comprehensive services that reach people dealing with many forms of grief from direct victims to their families, friends and coworkers, and even those who make it their daily work to support these individuals. The primary vehicle for delivering services is the website.GriefSupportServices.org. National Grief Support Services was founded in 1994 by Karen Russell of Los Angeles. Russell, 51, is a social worker, wife and mother. Her own grief experiences, including the death of her childhood sweetheart and first husband in an accident caused by a drunk driver, led gradually, yet directly, to her founding this organization. She is reinforced as executive director by a Board of Directors with both a belief in this mission and with professional expertise in human needs and multimedia communications.
