Stacey Fletcher is a parent voice representative at the University of Utah. As a clinical trainer for the Utah Pregnancy After Loss Program, Stacey ensures that parent experience plays a key role in developing excellent physical and mental health care. She also is the director of the University of Utah’s Peer Support Program which is under development, president of St. George Share, a volunteer with the International Stillbirth Alliance, and a dedicated stillbirth awareness advocate. On December 12, 2006, Stacey’s son Benjamin was stillborn—with no cause ever found. She has since dedicated her life to helping others who have experienced the same devastating fate. As a peer support specialist and bereavement photographer for 12 years, she has spent many tender hours with families whose lives are forever touched by the untimely death of their baby. Stacey is a storyteller.  She has worked professionally as a writer, editor, educator, and publisher, and she is passionate about giving voice to those who may not always be heard. Stacey and her husband Bryan are the busy parents of five living children. Together their family advocates against the racism and disparities often found in underserved and marginalized communities.
