About Us

Who We Are
Remembering Cherubs is a nonprofit resource center for those who have experienced pregnancy loss in Detroit and southeast Michigan.
What We Do
As many as half of all pregnancies end in loss. Yet, there is a stunning lack of resources to guide parents through grief or a clear path toward healing.
The few available resources are often scattered and hard to find. This unfortunate gap in support can leave many feeling lost and isolated and may lead to struggles with stress, anxiety, and even physical health issues.
We want to change that.
Remembering Cherubs brings together a diverse range of educational, emotional, and financial support resources into one convenient space. We aim to remove barriers to accessing support through partnerships and collaborations with community organizations.

Affirmations
Words of affirmation are powerful tools that can transform how we perceive and interact with the world around us. Research has shown that taking even a few moments to speak intentional affirmations daily can profoundly affect self-healing, happiness, and mental health. Put on some headphones and say these words aloud, allowing the vibrations of your own voice to tap into the healing powers of affirmations.
