Who We Serve:
Families, Loved Ones, Care Providers, and Communities Navigating Pregnancy & Infant Loss
RAISE Your Hearts supports anyone touched by loss when pregnancy and early parenthood do not go according to plan — at any stage, in any way. Whether you are grieving personally, supporting someone who is, or caring for families professionally, we know two things to be true. From one loss family to another, we are so sorry you are here. And two, you don’t have to go this alone.Pregnancy and infant loss affects far more people than many realize, and its impact ripples through parents, siblings, grandparents, caregivers, and entire communities. At RAISE Your Hearts, we walk alongside every person navigating the weight of this profound loss. Our programs create space to discover movement in whatever form feels right — from quiet, grounding steps to powerful, challenging strides — along with mindfulness, meaningful connection, and healing spaces inspired by nature. Together, we support families and caregivers as they pursue #wellnessingrief.
Why Support Matters: The Ripple Effects of Loss
One in three bereaved parents reports feeling socially isolated and unsupported after the loss of a baby, which can increase risk of prolonged grief disorder and depression.
42% of OB-GYN providers surveyed by the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology (2021) reported moderate to severe emotional distress after managing cases involving fetal or infant death
A study in the Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic & Neonatal Nursing (2017) found that neonatal nurses experience higher rates of burnout and emotional distress when caring for grieving families.
