It takes a village to rebuild a life.
Widowhood is a profound emotional, financial, and social transition. Yet, research shows that when women have strong community support, they experience dramatically better outcomes for themselves and their families.
11.8M
Widowhood affects millions of women across the United States, 11.8 million, to be exact. To put this into perspective: There are more widows in the U.S. than the entire population of Ohio. If widowhood were a city, it would be the largest city in America.
A woman loses her spouse every 35 seconds.
76%
76% of all adult widows (that’s nearly 8 in 10) in the United States are women. Behind that number is a truth we can’t ignore: this overwhelmingly touches women’s lives, and their families, at scale.
When one widow is supported, generations are impacted.
50%
Widows with strong social support experience up to 50% fewer symptoms of depression and anxiety. Lack of social connection increases mortality risk at the same level as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
Supporting widows in your community literally saves lives.
