Agency Type: Non-Profit, Support Group The Compassionate Friends is a self-help group for parents who have experienced the death of a child. Parents who have already survived the excruciating loss of a child reach out to help more recently bereaved parents in their struggle to recover. Newly-bereaved mothers and fathers learn that the grief process takes time and that the emotional upheaval they are experiencing is normal. The Compassionate Friends Support Group meets the third Thursday of each month at 7:30 PM, January through November, in the church basement located at 2010 4th street, Altoona, PA 16601.
