Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Association of SA Inc is one charity offering two vital services.
Red Tree Foundation
The Red Tree Foundation provides free grief counselling and bereavement support for any family in the South Australian community impacted by the sudden and unexpected death of their baby or child from conception to 17 years of age.
After the death of a child parents need to learn to live again in a world that does not include their child. Parents have to adjust to a new normal and this can take time and support. At Red Tree Foundation we walk beside parents to provide this support and the tools to navigate this new normal – helping parents to live after loss. We provide care, hope and understanding as families start to rebuild their lives.
