Grieving Hearts
A mother's grief is unlike any other.
Her care should be, too.
Grieving Hearts supports mothers
after the loss of a child.
through connection, support, education,
and healing-centered programs.
So that no grieving mother feels alone.
Who We Are
Grieving Hearts is a community of mothers
guided by a bereaved mother and therapist,
bringing both lived understanding
and professional insight.
🌿
Why Grieving Hearts Exists
The loss of a child changes everything.
It reaches into a mother’s body,
her relationships, her daily life—
and her sense of who she is.
Many mothers feel deeply alone
even when they are surrounded by people who love them.
They may feel misunderstood,
uncertain how to move through their days.
Overwhelmed by what is happening within them.
While there are organizations that support grieving families,
a mother’s experience is not always the central focus.
Grieving Hearts exists
so that mothers can find each other—
be understood,
and not have to navigate this alone.
🌿
How We Support Mothers
Connection
Small, intentional gatherings where mothers can be with others who understand—
without needing to explain.
Online connection through our website and monthly support circle.
Healing Education Series
A trauma-informed, mother-centered series offering gentle guidance
to help make sense of the emotional, physical, and relational impact of grief.
Remembrance & Expression
Meaningful, creative ways to honor and stay connected to a child—
through experiences that allow grief to be expressed, not suppressed.
Support
Practical and emotional support for mothers navigating overwhelming
or urgent circumstances—when it is needed most.
🌿
What This Looks Like
Each offering is created with care—
so that mothers can remember, connect, and feel less alone.

:Already

50+ mothers

5 in-person gatherings

21 mothers
engaged in in-person connection
2 mothers

🌿
What This Means
A mother whose adult child passed away found herself deeply isolated,
others believed her grief should be brief.
Through Grieving Hearts,
she connected with mothers who understood
and, for the first time, felt seen.
We have also connected mothers navigating suicide loss
with others further along in that same experience.
This kind of connection is happening again and again.
🌿
Why This Works
When a mother’s experience is named and understood,
something begins to shift.
What once felt confusing
begins to make sense.
What felt isolating
becomes shared.
There is recognition.
Connection.
A sense of not being alone.
You are not alone.
If you are a grieving mother, we are here for you.
If you would like to support this work, your generosity
helps us reach more mothers.
Healing begins
when we find each other.
