Rainbow P.A.L.S. is our social support group open to anyone who is considering or experiencing a subsequent pregnancy after loss. Meetings are usually held in a social setting. Past gatherings have been dinner at local restaurants, picnics and group art sessions. The mission of this support group is to celebrate the joys of pregnancy, while supporting other attendees navigate through the anxiety and fear that surrounds pregnancy after loss. Contact us If you would like to join this group. BUTTERFLY M.OM.S. (Missing Our Multiples)
Butterfly M.O.M.s is our social support group for parents who have a surviving multiple(s) and are coping with the joys and challenges of creating a future without one (or more) of their multiple. Losing one or more babies from a set of multiples is indescribable, complicated and often misunderstood. Contact us if you would like to join this group for friendship and dialogue. COMPANIONS PEER-TO-PEER MENTORING
The H.E.A.R.T.strings Companions Program matches trained volunteer mentors who have experienced the loss of a baby, with bereaved parents for personal, one-on-one support and companionship. H.E.A.R.T.strings will seek to match people with similar experiences when possible and will monitor the matches to make sure both parties are comfortable. If you are interested in being matched with a mentor, please contact us. TIME TO HEAL
The Time to Heal support group is what we offer to those that have had to make the difficult and painful decision to end a wanted pregnancy due to a poor prenatal diagnosis. This group provides the opportunity to communicate with others in a social/support setting. Contact us if you would like to join this group. |
