| Summary: | This paper deals with the grief process experiences, socio-economic repercussions, and coping methods and strategies of family members with a kin experiencing social death as a result of his incarceration. This study centers on nine respondents with a relative imprisoned. The design used is a case study method where their experiences and coping methods and strategies are presented in a compilation of descriptive records. The respondents were interviewed using an interview guide. All the data gathered were analyzed qualitatively, with comparisons made between similarities and differences in responses. From the responses gathered in the interview, it was determined that the stages of the grief process exhibited certain common characteristics. The respondents were also exposed to social stigmatization as well as economic difficulties. The coping methods used by the key respondents emphasized necessity, faith, support, and the actuations of the grief process stages. |
