About Us

Countless people have found comfort, support and understanding with us—all for no charge. We’ve helped to save many lives, marriages and families by providing services that would be extremely costly for the broken-hearted if our organization did not exist.

When Don and Susan Cox envisioned For the Love of Christi (named for the beautiful daughter they lost more than 20 years ago) they held to a few simple but extraordinary principles:

Our grief support services would always be free. The Christi Center would not be clinical, but more of a warm and caring place where our hearts—not our heads— would speak to the grieving.  We would judge no one and embrace all with love regardless of their circumstances or how their loved one died. And our support facilitators would have suffered their own losses similar to those to whom they would be offering support.

Through the years, more than 70,000 Austin-area folks have found a heart connection with us as they faced the loss of a loved one. We know grief, we know how much it hurts, and we can help.
