WE ARE HERE FOR YOU
Losing a child changes everything. In the midst of such deep pain, it can be hard to know where to turn or how to take the next step. Here in Maryland, we offer a caring community where grieving parents, siblings, and families can find understanding, comfort, and connection. You don’t have to walk this journey alone—we are here to walk beside you.
Our Maryland-based programs provide compassionate care through counseling, support groups, and educational resources designed to help parents, siblings, and loved ones navigate the grieving process. We are committed to fostering healing, resilience, and hope.
In Maryland—especially in Baltimore City—sleep-related infant deaths remain a leading, yet largely preventable, cause of loss. The Maryland Department of Health offers a wealth of resources on safe sleep practices, including educational videos, brochures in English and Spanish, sample parent pledge forms, and the “ABCDs” of safe sleep (Alone, Back, Crib, and Don’t Smoke).
