We help people connect to support after infertility, pregnancy loss or infant loss
Our mission is to support and connect individuals who have experienced the trauma around miscarriage, stillbirth, Termination For Medical Reasons (TFMR), abortion, neonatal loss, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), or infertility.
We acknowledge that the journey through loss towards healing is as complex as it is individual. As such, we offer many no-cost pathways to healing including a helpline, support groups, peer mentorship, and professional 1:1 sessions.
Our Programs
Our services are FREE with both virtual and in-person options available. We acknowledge that the journey through loss towards healing is as complex as the individual. We offer programs to provide support that all parents can access no matter what stage of the family building journey they are in (acute grief, trying to conceive, pregnant after loss, parenting after loss, etc.)
Professional Support
There is no one path to healing. That is why we offer options for 1:1 support from our Certified Counsellors as well as our Pregnancy & Infant Loss Coach’s so that you can choose the path that is right for you.
Counselling
Certified counsellors offer traditional psychotherapy techniques such as CBT, narrative therapy. Counsellors are certified to evaluate and treat mental health concerns and diagnoses.
Coaching
Certified coaches are not therapists and help clients identify challenges, then work in partnership with clients to work toward a future that they feel at peace in. Coaches support their clients through powerful questioning and deepening of perspectives.
Peer Group Support
Having specialized groups at every stage of the journey is a key part of our mission.
Support Groups
Connect with other individuals who have walked a similar path to your own in a group setting for community support. Weekly and monthly options available.
Social Connections
Join us in-person to connect with others in a casual and social environment.
Ambassador Groups
These are similar to our social connections, and hosted in rural communities by dedicated and trained volunteers.
Specialty Workshops
Join us for professionally facilitated Art Therapy, Grief Circles, and other special workshops.

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.
