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.

"[The pregnancy & Infant loss helpline] is so critical to making sure I know I am not alone and that my experience is validated" ~Helpline Client

"The handful of times that I sat with [coach] in session were honestly some of the most powerful experiences in my life"~Coaching client

"My partner and I attended a support group and met a few people who had really gone through miscarriages, and although we had a different experience than them we all were able to connect and share a sense of grief and support together in a very welcoming environment" ~Group Support Client.

"I am blessed to be a volunteer on the center’s helpline. This is a role that I knew would assist me with my grief, as I have always found peace in helping others. What I did not expect was that my spirit would be awoken in ways that would allow me to further my own healing journey. This role has been transitional for me" ~Volunteer

"It’s not a club we ever wanted to be part of, but there’s so much support and understanding at PILSC" ~PILSC Client

"This centre is an answer to so many needs, and an incredible way to bring together a much needed community. The team works hard to create a safe, inclusive environment and offer a huge variety of services" PILSC Client

"I am incredibly grateful for each volunteer on the other end, supporting and upholding me in so many ways when my grief is all-consuming and isolating" ~Helpline Client

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.
