Abstract

With no standard evaluation requirement or evaluation method, a literature review of bereavement support or grief recovery program evaluations was undertaken to identify and assess evaluation methods. Considerable insight into bereavement program evaluation methods was gained, but bereavement program evaluation was determined to be an underdeveloped science.
