Grace Port - Caritas Miscarriage Support Centre - Jockey Club Perinatal Bereavement Care Project
Service Introduction
Statistics show that one in five pregnant women experiences pregnancy loss, highlighting its prevalence. However, Hong Kong has lacked specialized support services for parents who have experienced pregnancy loss. Influenced by traditional Chinese culture, pregnancy loss is often a taboo subject, leaving parents”roles, grief, and complex emotions unrecognized or met with inappropriate responses, causing further harm.
