support group listings

Online support has been a treasured resouce for so many of us, but there is something special about a face to face connetion with another lifemother. Instead of looking at a computer screen, you are then able to see the tears and hear the laughter of another person who walks a journey similiar to your own.

If you run, belong to, or know of a birthmother's support group, or a triad support group, in your local area -- please send the contact information (such as: state, city/location, name of group/sponsor contact person/email, phone number, etc.) to Skye and it will be put up on this page. Please: make sure the info is correct and the support group is still running before sending in the info, thanks!
