The 5th annual National Conference on College Student Grief will take place in August 2012 (final date: TBD) in Raleigh, NC or Washington, DC (final location: TBD). Please email info@studentsofamf.org if you’d like to be placed on the conference mailing list for updates about the 2012 conference!
At AMF, we know grief is difficult and often solitary. That’s why we created an energizing weekend that brings together student leaders, members of the college mental health community, and other interested parties to talk about grief and the work we can all do to lessen its negative effects on the lives of college students.

Full of educational seminars, networking opportunities, chapter development information, and grief support workshops, the conference is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to tackle current issues and define future directions in addressing college student bereavement. But don’t just take our word for it; here’s what one of our attendees had to say:
Wow! What a fantastic weekend! This is my third year attending the conference and each year it never ceases to amaze me. Each and every year I meet new, incredible people who are doing amazing work across the country. I feel so fortunate to be involved with National Students of AMF and I honestly don’t know where I’d be without this incredible organization.
