The Compassionate Friends revisited

I've written about The Compassionate Friends before but not about its wonderful services for parents and siblings. Here is some information for those out there who need help - especially during the holidays.



The Compassionate Friends “Supporting Family After a Child Dies.” 
Through a network of more than 625 chapters with locations in all 50 states, and Washington DC and Puerto Rico, The Compassionate Friends has been supporting bereaved families after the death of a child for four decades. Each chapter, along with the supporting National Office, is committed to helping every bereaved parent, sibling, or grandparent during the natural grieving process after a child has died. 
Its mission 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 National Office and its staff also provide many levels of support to our chapters, as well as individual responses to those who call on the phone, contact us through our website, or send an e-mail that asks for help. The Compassionate Friends is committed to being there for you as long as you needs its services. 


Please go to The Compassionate Friends website for more information:
