Mourning Moms was founded in January 2024 by Angelia White after the heartbreaking loss of her 22-year-old son, Dontavius White, to gun violence on June 19, 2022.
After navigating grief and attending counseling, Angelia realized something was missing — a space where mothers like her could truly connect, understand one another, and heal together.
Through her journey, she encountered many grieving mothers suffering in silence. Mourning Moms was created so no one has to grieve alone.
"This support group provides a safe, loving environment not only for mothers, but also for fathers, siblings, and anyone grieving the loss of a loved one."
We are a community of grieving hearts — parents, siblings, families — brought together by loss and united by hope. We believe healing happens together.
Creating open, judgment-free environments where grief can be expressed and honored.
Walking alongside families through every stage of grief — no matter how long it takes.
Shining a light on gun violence, domestic violence, suicide, and mental health loss.
Channeling grief into advocacy, community action, and lasting change.
Building bonds of love and resilience that carry grieving hearts forward together.
Regular gatherings where members can share, listen, and find comfort in the presence of others who truly understand.
Guided activities and therapeutic group sessions designed to promote emotional wellness and forward movement.
Events including our annual Stop the Violence Day, bringing the community together around awareness and prevention.
Access to curated resources, referrals, and one-on-one emotional support when you need it most.
