GLADD Is Hiring Grief Coaches

For those who feel called to hold space for grief with compassion, presence, and integrity—one human story at a time.

THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL ROLE

Please Read This First

This is not a clinical position.

This is not about fixing grief or offering quick solutions.

This is about Presence.

GLADD—Grieving Loss After Death and Dying—exists to support individuals navigating loss by honoring grief as a sacred, deeply human experience rooted in love.

If you believe grief needs to be witnessed, not solved, you're in the right place.
