Le Phare’s Lantern :
Racanelli Grief and Bereavement Center
Supporting families so that no one grieves alone
We know that no words can erase the pain, but we believe that no family should have to walk this path in solitude.
We offer, free of charge, a bereavement follow-up program for parents and families who have lost a child under the age of 18, including losses occurring during pregnancy, the perinatal period, or following an illness.
Le Phare’s Lantern is a space at the heart of Le Phare where light endures, even in the darkness of grief. It is a safe, welcoming place where each family is met with compassion and supported by a team that honors your story and your pace.
Here, hope, solidarity, and mutual support shine — so you never have to carry your grief alone.
A Lighthouse to guide, a Lantern to watch over.
Individual, Couple, or Family Meetings
For parents, siblings, grandparents, and significant loved ones — providing a safe space to support you throughout your grieving process.

The Lise and Giuseppe Racanelli Foundation
Le Phare’s Lantern: Racanelli Grief and Bereavement Center was created thanks to the generosity of the Lise and Giuseppe Racanelli Foundation.
Deeply committed to health, especially mental health, the Racanelli family supports numerous patients through their donations and initiatives. Moved by the experience of friends whose children were cared for at Le Phare, Véronique Racanelli and her family chose to support its mission — to bring respite, comfort, and accompaniment to other families.
