Welcome to the
Pregnancy & Infant Loss
Support Centre
We help Families Connect to Support after Pregnancy or Infant Loss
The Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support Centre is a non-profit registered charity that helps families connect to support on their path to healing after pregnancy or infant loss. Families just like yours can work with us and get support from our team with a variety of services that address each stage of the loss journey.
What our Clients have to say
We have been where you are. We can relate to the roller coaster of emotions. This is why we started PILSC: to help others going through loss. We see you because we ARE you.
How We Can Help
We have an Acute Crisis Line staffed nearly every day that you can use to connect with peer volunteers and get immediate support. Visit our helpline page for more info.
Honor Your Journey
by memorializing your special day on our calendar
Every day of the year, somewhere, a family is going through a pregnancy or infant loss journey. Families who want to honor their journey in a meaningful way are encouraged to support our Legacy Sponsorship program so that other families grappling with the heartache of pregnancy or infant loss will get the support they need. Sponsoring a day of the year that’s meaningful to you gives you the opportunity to dedicate one day of our Text and Web Chat Helpline support in your baby’s name.
