L’Association Parents Orphelins est fière d’être cosignataire, avec 23 autres associations siégeant sur la table de concertation sur le deuil périnatal, de cette lettre ouverte.

La semaine dernière, Mme Désirée McGraw, députée de / MNA for NDG a déposé une demande de mandat d'initiative afin qu'une commission parlementaire se penche sur les congés et prestations offerts par le Régime québécois d'assurance parentale (RQAP) dans le cas d'une perte survenant durant la grossesse ou de décès d’un bébé à la naissance ou peu de temps après

« Le Québec a l’occasion de poser un geste concret et maintes fois demandé. En juin dernier, le gouvernement annonçait une baisse du taux de cotisation au RQAP et exprimait sa volonté de revoir le régime. Rappelons que celui-ci accumule des surplus importants depuis plusieurs années dans un contexte de baisse du taux de natalité. Le moment est propice pour améliorer le soutien des personnes et des couples confrontés à un deuil périnatal. Il est temps de leur offrir une véritable reconnaissance de leur vécu. »

Starting October 15, PSI is proud to offer a new online peer support group, Fetal Diagnosis Support During Pregnancy 💙

Led by trained peer facilitators, this support group is for expectant parents (gestational and non-gestational) who have received a high-risk or potentially life-limiting fetal diagnosis and are continuing their pregnancy. These situations often involve overwhelming uncertainty and complex medical decisions. Whether you are continuing a pregnancy with a potentially life-limiting condition or pursuing treatment with unknown or complex outcomes, this group offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to find connection and support. This group prioritizes emotional support, connection, and community throughout the pregnancy. We are here to support you with empathy and respect for your unique experience. You are not alone.

October 1 marks the beginning of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month: a time to support the thousands of women and families across Canada whose lives are tragically altered by the loss of a baby. Every individual’s experience of grief is unique, but no one should have to walk that journey alone.

The SOGC is committed to ensuring that women’s voices and experiences are heard and reflected in the care they receive. Through our Pregnancy Loss HUB, we provide updated clinical guidance to health care professionals to equip them with the knowledge and tools to offer compassionate evidence-based support to their patients.

To mark International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, the Canadian Collaborative for Stillbirth Prevention - CC4SP (Canadian Collaborative for Stillbirth Prevention) shared this important short film produced by PUSH for Empowered Pregnancy. They have also published a paper in collaboration with the The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada - SOGC in the Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology Canada arguing for a national action plan to reduce the stillbirth rates in Canada. Finally, in anticipation of this fall’s 2025 federal budget, the CC4SP submitted its recommendation to the Minister of Finance: invest $10 million over 5 years to develop and implement a national action plan to reduce stillbirths in Canada by 30% by 2030. Congratulations to its founder, Nadine Belzile and her team!

Learn how altered fetal movement is often the first and only warning sign of a baby in distress. Stillness is an Illness highlights the need for awareness and immediate action. Watch the film and share it to help save babies' lives.

For all student and independent filmmakers out there who are interested in highlighting the important role of fathers (referring to all who play fatherly roles) in children's lives, here is an excellent opportunity! Submission deadline is March 24th--

What is The D3F?
“Daddying” is what occurs when fatherhood and nurturing converge in service to a child's well-being. The Daddying Film Festival and Forum (D3F), is not your ordinary film festival. D3F is the world’s first and only film festival focused exclusively on promoting the importance of positive dad/dad figure involvement for kids and families. D3F was created by the DADvocacy Consulting Group and its Daddy Appleseed Fund (DAF) to offer children and youth a stage to express through film/video how they feel about the relationship they have or wish they had with their dads.

The inaugural virtual Daddying Film Festival in 2022 provided students and other non-student, independent filmmakers from 17 countries a worldwide stage to convey the importance of involved dads in their lives. In 2023, D3F expanded its outreach to encourage dads and dad figures to submit their own films for consideration. (Note: when we use the words "father" or "dad," we also refer to all who play fatherly roles.)
