Fallen Petals

Support, understanding, and connection when you need it most.

“Your grief is real, your love is endless, and you are not alone.”

A Community of Support

Losing a child changes everything.

Fallen Petals is a gentle, supportive community for families who have experienced loss at any stage. Through gatherings in Westchester and Putnam Counties, as well as a private online space, families are invited to share, remember, and connect with others who understand.

This is a non-clinical, peer support community offering comfort, connection, and care at your own pace. If additional support is needed, we can help guide you to trusted resources.
