My Nonprofit Reviews

When we started Infants Remembered In Silence, Inc. (IRIS) in 1987 (28 years ago) we never dreamed we would be working thousands of people every year! We never dreamed that we would have so many wonderful services to offer grieving parents. Services that I as a bereaved mother would have loved to have had.

Today we offer one on one support, support groups, along with Advocate Services in both hospitals and funeral homes. Advocate Services include assistance with labor and deliver, assist in creating keepsakes such as hand and foot prints, sculptures of hands and feet, and assistance with giving your child a bath. We offer clothing, blankets, and hats that will fit infants from 10 gestational weeks on! We host wonderful events such as the annual Holiday Service of Remembrance that is held on the 1st Sunday in December in the Chapel of the Good Shepherd on Shattuck Campus that everyone is invited to attend, we have the memorial Water Lantern Release, a Common Burial site, and much, much more. The support of this Great Organization truly is something to behold! It is a lifeline for many people, it offers support, assistance, a guiding hand to hold, and a loving hug of understanding in the very long and lonely walk through grief. For more information about IRIS and our services please visit www.irisRemembers.org It is a great honor to provide a 5 star rating to IRIS!
