Sharing support after child loss

Missing Pieces is dedicated to supporting families and their communities following the death of an infant, child, or young adult. We help you navigate your grief journey.

  • Find support or connect with others
  • Learn more about grief resources
  • Discover ways to memorialize your child

Missing Pieces works with researchers to study our programming and the experiences of grieving families. People referred to Missing Pieces will be involved in one of two programs, so that we can understand how to best help people. Your participation in any evaluation of Missing Pieces programing is completely voluntary and will not impact your involvement in any Missing Pieces programming. Researchers from Lurie Children’s Hospital will contact you in about six months to see if you are interested in providing feedback about your experiences.
