A Light After Nine
A Light After Nine is a maternal health and grief support organization founded by Rachell M. Dumas, RN, after her personal journey through nine pregnancy losses and the birth of her miracle child. The organization is dedicated to providing compassionate care, peer-led support, healing spaces, and advocacy for individuals and families navigating infertility, maternal trauma, and loss, with a special focus on underserved communities. Through intentional gatherings like Dear Mama and other wellness-focused programs, A Light After Nine creates safe spaces for storytelling, guided journaling, education, and community connection. Its mission is to ensure that every parent’s story is honored, every voice is heard, and every journey is supported with compassion and care.
