MEET THE TEAM
NechamaComfort supports families who have suffered from early miscarriage through infants up to age one.
We help wherever and whenever we are needed – the immediate family, extended family, and friends. We work with medical staff, hospital staff, clergy, and funeral homes to get families what they need, and we educate professionals and communities on how to be supportive. Whether the loss was recent or a long time ago, we are here.
