Everyone grieves the loss of a baby differently. Each person's needs are very different. The support systems we have in place vary greatly. The entire first year can be full of many ups and downs. If you need additional support, or you need guidance on how to help your family or friend (either in general or with a particular struggle) we are here for you.
Rachel's Gift pregnancy and infant loss support groups are open to those who have experienced the loss of a baby through miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant death.
Rachel's Gift provides support for families both in the hospital and beyond. Through support groups led by caring qualified counselors and social workers with years of experience, we help families move toward healing. Unlike general bereavement support groups, our support groups are specifically designed for families of pregnancy and infant loss. Families are able to join a support group at any time, where there are both emotional and tangible take aways.
All of our groups are open to parents, grandparents, extended family, and even friends who would like to gain insight on better ways to be supportive. To be sensitive to your loss, children and babies are not allowed to attend. Registration is requested, not required.
This group is facilitated by Bonnie Brown, Christy Forrest, and Jennifer Chase; contact Bonnie at (850) 232-6935, Christy at (850) 461-2879, or jennifer.chase@ascension.org for more information.
