Funeral homes are important resources. Here's a step-by-step guide for how to contact them and what to ask.

We are eager to announce that the Haven Bereavement Doula summer book club will meet to discuss The Myth of the Perfect Pregnancy: A History of Miscarriage in America.

A free resource to help you feel more comfortable and confident speaking about loss.

Like many other doula certification programs, ours has a reading list. We provide it here so that everyone who is looking for resources on bereavement support can engage with them, whether you're currently part of our program or not!

Did you know that there is a free virtual community group that meets monthly, just for parents who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss? Every loss parent is warmly and gently invited to join us as we gather for solidarity, ideas-sharing, and presence.

Grief and loss are some of the hardest topics to talk about, especially in spaces such as social media. But, if you want to demonstrate your support of loss families, grief and loss *need* to show up somewhere on your grid or in your feed.

When children experience a loss, finding ways to help them understand and cope is a crucial part of the grieving process for families. This is where the power of reading comes in. But, there are many, many children’s books about grief, death, and even perinatal loss. No need to find them all; we’ve reviewed them for you.

"Grief-informed" is a term I use to capture two key elements of someone’s approach toward other people.

One in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage, meaning loss before 20 weeks gestation (Dugas & Slane 2022).

You’re not in this alone. Whether you’re working toward an HCBD Haven Certified Bereavement Doula certification or not, our team is here to support you.

However, therapy is expensive, so we want to help you find lower-cost therapy. Here’s ten ideas how you can.
