Pregnancy & Infant Loss
Support Group
Come to be with others who understand.
Come to listen.
Come to talk.
The mission of Share Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support, Inc.® is to serve
those whose lives are touched by the tragic death of a baby through early pregnancy
loss, stillbirth, or in the first few months of life.
Many parents find that a support group helps them cope with their painful
feelings, thoughts and fears. Only parents who have experienced the death
of a baby can possibly understand your grief. This parent-to-parent support
will offer you hope and encouragement. We invite you to join us.
