Hear how this group of resilient families, motivated by their tragic losses, is leading the charge for product safety reform. We highlight their determined efforts to gather data and influence the Consumer Product Safety Commission, shedding light on the pressing need for targeted bereavement support. Discover the strength found within this community and the transformative impact of building formalized grief support networks for families touched by preventable tragedies.
