To the community and partners of Compassion with Action,

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our Founder and President, Darlene Turgeon, on February 9, 2026, following a brief battle with cancer.

Darlene was a relentless advocate for the vulnerable, dedicating her efforts fighting human trafficking and empowering countless individuals and organizations through her knowledge and passion. Her bright light, enthusiasm, and unwavering commitment to helping others will never be forgotten.

Details regarding her celebration of life will be shared at a later date.

Updates will be posted by her beloved daughter, Karen, on this site: https://www.caringbridge.org/site/058a6042-cf2e-11f0-99cd-7b4db85931e7?utm_source=amazonses&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=das_followers
