Mission
To provide charitable and educational activities which provide support for children and their families who experience loss through death of one or more family members.
Program accomplishments
- FRIENDS WAY (FW), the family bereavement center in Rhode Island, offers bereavement support services to children ages 3 to 18 and their adult caregivers throughout Southeastern New England, and also provides community awareness and training on issues related to children, grief, and loss via community organizations including schools, churches, and civic groups. These organizations are comprised of peer groups which convene three nights per week throughout the school year. If necessary, the clinician follows up with the families and, when appropriate, provides additional professional referrals. Staffed with highly qualified mental health care professionals and extensively trained community volunteers, FW provides peer support to children and their families in a safe and nurturing environment. Services are provided without charge, with 100% of the program funded via philanthropic activities and community support. FW works closely with hospitals, schools, funeral homes, mental health agencies, pediatricians, and individuals as it provides services.Expenses $250,134
