Compassionate Friends of Grande Prairie

In our lives we must all learn to deal with the death of friends and family, as well as our own mortality. Few of us, however, know the particular devastation that comes with the death of a child. We expect our children to outlive us, to be a continuation of our own lives. The shattering of this expectation is unique and complex and cannot be likened to any other loss.

OUR PURPOSE is to aid in the positive reconciliation of grief and foster the physical and emotional health of bereaved parents and their surviving children.

AIMS OF TCF are:

πŸ“·πŸ’™To offer support and friendship to any bereaved parent regardless of age, race, creed, or financial status. πŸ“·πŸ’œTo provide meetings where feelings and emotions can be shared in an atmosphere of trust, empathy, and confidentiality. If any parents prefer, they can just listen. πŸ“·πŸ§‘To provide information about the grieving process through our newsletter, programs and library. πŸ“·πŸ’™To listen with understanding and provide "telephone friends". πŸ“·β€To provide contact with bereaved parents who have worked through their grief and found fresh hope and strength for living. πŸ“·πŸ’šTo communicate with professionals involved with bereaved parents.
