Grief Support After the Death of
a Child
The
mission of The Compassionate Friends is to assist families toward the positive resolution of grief following the death
of a child of any age and to provide information to help others be supportive.
The Compassionate Friends is
a national nonprofit, self-help support organization that offers friendship, understanding, and hope to bereaved parents,
grandparents and siblings. There is no religious affiliation and there are no membership dues or fees.
The secret
of TCF's success is simple: As seasoned grievers reach out to the newly bereaved, energy that has been directed
inward begins to flow outward and both are helped to heal. The vision of The Compassionate
Friends is that everyone who needs us will find us and everyone who finds us will be helped.
