Note: This event has already passed.

Life's journey is often sprinkled with moments of joy and happiness, but it's also marked by moments of profound sorrow. For those who have experienced the heart-wrenching pain of pregnancy or infant loss, we understand that words alone can't mend the ache. That's why we've created a special place, a haven of empathy and shared experiences – an informal, peer-led support group dedicated to all who have endured such losses, no matter where they are on their healing journey.

What We Offer:

A Haven of Compassion: Our support group is a sanctuary for those who have faced the staggering weight of pregnancy or infant loss. Here, you'll find a compassionate community of individuals who understand the depths of your pain because they've walked the same path. We're here to listen, to hold space for your stories, and to offer solace through shared understanding.

Guided by Peers, Grounded in Empathy: Led by individuals who have navigated their own journey of loss, our support group is driven by genuine empathy and a desire to create a safe environment where everyone's feelings are validated. Our peer leaders have not only felt the pain but have also found ways to nurture hope, and they are here to gently guide discussions and provide insights.

Wherever You Are in Your Grief: Whether you're grappling with a recent loss or have been carrying the weight of grief for a longer time, our group welcomes you with open arms. We believe that healing is not a linear path – it's a series of steps unique to each person. Together, we embrace all stages of grief and healing, offering companionship on the road to finding moments of light amidst the darkness.

A Place for Connection: In our support group, you'll encounter more than just discussions about grief. It's a space where connections are forged – connections with others who have experienced similar pain, connections that remind us we're not alone in our struggles. These connections can be the stepping stones to rebuilding a sense of belonging and strength.

Your Invitation to Healing: If you've faced the heartache of pregnancy or infant loss, you don't have to journey through the pain in isolation. Our informal support group is a testament to the power of collective understanding and shared narratives. Join us in this haven of empathy, where your story matters, your grief is acknowledged, and your healing is supported by those who truly comprehend.

Take that step towards healing and connection today. You're not alone; we're here for you.
