At Bereaved Families of Ontario – Hamilton/Burlington we fully understand the reality facing families who have experienced the death of a child, grandchild, sibling or parent. We are the only local resource whose mandate is to provide grief support to parents who have experienced the death of a child of any age. Our program objective is to support grieving families find new ideas and information on grief, coping, and reconciliation of the death of their child. BFO-HB offers a support system that is unique and has been proven to be effective for long-term coping success for bereaved parents. Our team of bereaved parent volunteers, with the support of mental health professionals, lead the path to healing by example and experience.
By providing timely support for parents who have experienced the death of their child, we are able to assist parents to restore family life in a healthy way, and reintegrate back into community life and the workplace.
Our programs are not meant to replace individual professional counselling but act as an adjunct to existing community mental health services. We work collaboratively with our partners to ensure bereaved parents in our community receive the support they need to start a healthy path to healing.
