When things don’t go as planned during pregnancy or childbirth, it can be a very scary and traumatic experience. Each year in the United States, about one in four women have a miscarriage, 24,000 babies are stillborn, and 23,000 die within their first month of life. Navigating through this loss can be very difficult for families, but the right support can make a big difference.

In the webinars below, Return to Zero: HOPE‘s Dr. Kiley Krekorian Hanish shares information, tips, and resources to help empower and prepare home visitors to support families who are grieving the loss of a baby. She also discusses how to support families who are expecting again after a previous pregnancy ended in loss. (Scroll down for links to additional resources.)
