Rooms of Respite Program
Families experiencing pregnancy loss and infant death are too often placed in general waiting areas within birthing centers—spaces filled with the sounds and celebrations of new life. In the midst of profound grief, this contrast can deepen their pain and sense of isolation at an already devastating time.
Jane’s Room exists to change that experience. Our nonprofit is dedicated to creating compassionate, private spaces of respite within hospitals for families facing loss. Through our Rooms of Respite Program, we partner with healthcare institutions to thoughtfully design and install calming, supportive environments that offer privacy, dignity, and emotional refuge during the earliest moments of grief.
These spaces provide families with options, flexibility, and the opportunity to begin processing their loss in a setting that acknowledges their experience with care and compassion. By expanding rooms of respite in hospitals across the country, Jane’s Room is helping ensure that no grieving family is left to navigate one of life’s most difficult moments in a space that does not honor their loss.
