Loss & Grief

Losing a child is devastating. We're here for you and your family.

No family should ever have to experience the loss of a child. But if this tragic event happens, we want to help you. Any Baby Can's Center for Infant & Child Loss provides support to parents who have experienced the tragic loss of their infant, child, or teen due to any cause.

The Center for Infant and Child Loss services are offered to parents/guardians who have lost a child ages birth through 17 yrs and must reside in Bexar County or the 18 surrounding counties.
