The Haven Network
For Perinatal Death and Bereavement

---

The Haven Network, Northern Illinois' Perinatal Hospice and Bereavement Center, provides companionship on the grief journey to families who experience the death of their pre-born or new born baby who has a terminal condition. We also help those who suffer miscarriage or infant death.

We are an independent Christian ministry offering life affirming services, providing emotional, spiritual, and practical support at no cost to the family. We strive to help parents build memories of their precious little one, enabling them to remember this difficult time with comfort, knowing that they did the very best for their baby and entire family.

Trained staff and volunteers, accompany the family during this season of heartache and in the months to follow.

The Haven Network does not charge for its services, but relies on charitable donations and grants.

At the Haven:

• We believe each baby is handcrafted by the Triune God and is a valued member of the human family.
• We believe each baby, pre-born or newly born, is worthy of tender, palliative care until natural death.
• We believe every family member, regardless of race or creed, deserves to be treated with honor and dignity.
• We recognize that parents have the primary role in caring for their baby and deserve support and encouragement, enabling them to be the best parents possible in their time of grief.
• We are honored, as staff and volunteers to be the servants of Christ and will strive to model His example of compassionate care.

Soli Deo Gloria
