Resources for Professionals


Presentations & Professional Development

Empty Arms offers professional trainings tailored to a group of providers wishing to increase their own knowledge of how to compassionately care for the bereaved.

Upcoming Professional Training Offerings

Empty Arms offers bi-annual in-person, hybrid, and remote bereavement training open to all professionals.

Peer Companion Program

Empty Arms has several trained, experienced volunteers who are on call to these birth centers to assist families who are experiencing a stillbirth or newborn death.

Hand and Foot Casting

Our volunteers work with local medical facilities to offer hand and foot casts at the time of birth for bereaved families. This offers families an irreplaceable memento of their child.

Miscarriage Medical & Comfort Supplies

If you're a practitioner who works with women who may be miscarrying, we recommend that you put together a take-home kit of supplies that might be useful when that miscarriage occurs. 

Distributable Resources for your Patients

These resources were all written by loss parents, for loss parents, and the providers who care for them. We have downloadable PDFs for unlimited institutional use.
