Baby Loss Support Groups

Our monthly support groups are for people who have experienced a miscarriage, stillbirth, termination for medical reasons (TFMR), or if your baby died shortly after birth. Anyone affected by this type of loss is welcome. Feel free to bring your partner or a support person. Partners need support too and your support person may learn ways to better understand what you are going through and how to hold space with you. Our support groups are open to all faiths and are not faith-based. 

What is a support group like? People share their stories and current struggles, hear what has been helpful from others, and meet someone who might be a new friend. It is a safe space to feel all of your emotions with others who understand exactly what you are going through. There is no pressure to speak if you just want to come and listen. We focus on what we have in common instead of how we are different.

We have made each support group unique to your loss experience-miscarriage, stillbirth/newborn death from a life-limiting diagnosis and TFMR (termination for medical reasons). We also have a group specifically for the Black community. Please select what group fits your needs best.

We will sometimes offer special, in-person support groups to bring in different modalities of healing, incorporating art, yoga, or music, to give you the opportunity to explore other ways to process your grief. We add events often, so check back frequently or check out our Facebook Events page or our calendar to stay updated.

In a effort to create a safe space, we have a few requirements. This is a private group so please make sure that you are in a quiet, private, child-free space when you are in the virtual room. We also ask that you keep your camera on and blur your background.

Our hope is that that we can create a community where the newly bereaved have a place to be welcomed, all can offer and receive support and share what is on their heart so that no one feels alone on this grief journey.

Please select your support group session from the calendar below and RSVP. You will receive an email with the ZOOM link 15 minutes before the support group starts.  We hope you will try it out and see if it is something that is helpful as you mourn the loss of your baby.
