Welcome to The Compassionate Friends - Broome County Chapter web site. If you just surfed onto this site we're glad you paid a visit. However, if you were looking for us, we're sorry for what caused you to seek us out.
If you are feeling lost and isolated in your grief over your child's or sibling's death, remember,
YOU ARE NOT ALONE
The Compassionate Friends is an international self-help organization offering friendship and understanding to bereaved parents and siblings. It was founded in 1969 by the Reverend Simon Stephen in Coventry, England. The first US Chapter was founded in 1972.
For more information about how TCF got started see "How It All Began...".
The Compassionate Friends is not affiliated with any specific religion nor does it endorse any political view. Our only purpose is to provide a comforting network of support, friendship and understanding that only those who have "been there" can give.
When a child dies, a parent's world is turned upside down. Life will never be the same again. The grief of this loss is the worst thing a parent will ever endure. You do not have to go through this grief process alone. There are other parents who have experienced the death of a child and can offer understanding and support. These parents make up The Compassionate Friends.
We gather to listen, to share and to support each other in the resolution of our grief. You need not walk alone.
