Grief Etiquette Pocket Guide
A Quick Reference for Professionals, Caregivers, and Supporters.
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
The third tool in the Grief Etiquette family. The field reference for the people who arrive at the hardest moments.
When someone is dying, when violence has just occurred, when a family is making funeral arrangements, when grief enters the workplace, the people called to help often have seconds to choose their words, not hours. The Grief Etiquette Pocket Guide is the quick reference designed for exactly those moments.
Compact enough to carry, comprehensive enough to trust, this guide distills the Grief Etiquette framework into field-ready cards organized by situation, by grief type, and by professional role. Inside you will find The First Five Minutes at a scene of acute loss, what to say and what never to say, guidance for hospital and hospice settings, funeral homes, graveside services, home visits, the workplace, high-profile loss, and cases involving violence. Dedicated pages serve clergy, funeral directors, healthcare workers, first responders, HR professionals, therapists, and victim advocates.
The full Grief Etiquette framework appears in concentrated form, including newly named categories like Consecrated Grief, Grief Currency, Grief Tourism, and the Both Sides of the Coin philosophy. Warning signs, referral guidance, and crisis resources are built in.
Written by Tyra K. Little, a United States military veteran, trauma-informed practitioner, and Everytown Survivor Fellow, this pocket guide is the companion to Grief Etiquette and The Grief Etiquette Workbook. Bulk orders and custom imprinting available for churches, hospitals, law enforcement, hospice teams, HR departments, and victim services units.
Grief deserves dignity. Etiquette is how we protect it. This is how we carry it into the field.
