Emotional Support

We know that losing a child is one of the most painful experiences anyone can go through. It can feel like you have been torn apart, robbed, or left with despair that no one understands. You don’t have to face this alone. Tears has trained volunteers who are ready to support you emotionally and walk with you on your grief journey. They are compassionate and caring people who have been where you are and who can offer you comfort and hope.

We have created a safe and comforting place for bereaved families, professionals and community members to receive compassionate support. Our goal is to build a caring community to help families who have lost a child on their journey toward healing. We provide education and resources for ongoing bereavement care and overall wellness.
