To the newly bereaved

When your child, grandchild, or sibling has died, suddenly it seems like you are all alone and no one understands.
You are not alone.

Our MISSION

The mission of The Compassionate Friends: When a child dies, at any age, the family suffers intense pain and may feel hopeless and isolated. The Compassionate Friends provides highly personal comfort, hope, and support to every family experiencing the death of a son or a daughter, a brother or a sister, or a grandchild, and helps others better assist the grieving family.
