ABOUT US
We started Lumos because we believe that families are stronger when they are able to navigate their own experiences and story.
We believe the seeds of social change are planted when families are able to empower themselves and feel supported in the process of growing their family.
Families who choose Lumos know they will be more grounded and confident as parents when they are surrounded by support, information, and community.
