Early Loss Support Group

Experiencing the early loss of a child can bring unimaginable pain and grief, along with feeling unworthy, lost and alone. Our Early Loss Support Group provides connection for parents grieving the loss of their baby (whether during the pregnancy or after birth), nonjudgmental support, and useful information to navigate the pain of this loss. Early loss can be an isolating experience and the group may provide an avenue for healing and hope for either or both parents. Parents can join at any time and the group is free to attend.
