Providing
psychological and spiritual support services to women who
have experienced mother loss is an important part of the foundation’s
outreach efforts. Loss of a mother is a unique and significant
transition for women requiring emotional, spiritual, and social
adaptation. The Foundation believes that the support of other
women who have experienced the loss facilitates this adaptation.
This support coupled with professional guidance offers women
the opportunity to move through their grief more gracefully
and intentionally.
