PALS: Pregnancy / Parenting After Loss: Meets by request in your area
Meetings are unstructured and open to whatever conversation emerges as the meeting progresses. Attending families may choose to contribute or simply to sit and listen. A core group of grieving parents attend. Meetings are in open, drop-in format. Any family should feel free to attend or not on any given month. A lending libraryof books and Share newsletters on grief and perinatal befeavement is always available.
If the support group date falls in a holiday week or a major stom check this website to validate the time and place.
THE FUTURE OF MEETINGS:
In future we hope to be running four grief/loss support meetings monthly, one in each corner of the southern part of the state: Brattleboro, Rutland, Manchester and Springfield. Currently, we gather in Rutland, Vermont to try and make the commute equidistant for all who need support.
