​
We offer support groups led by caring, qualified counselors and social workers with years of experience to help moms and families move toward healing. Unlike general bereavement support groups, our groups are specifically designed for families enduring miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant death. Families are able to join a support group at any time. All our groups are free for families to attend, as they are generously funded by community donations. 

If we do not currently offer a support group in your area, please continue below to find your state to see other support groups available nationwide.
​DISCLAIMER: Rachel's Gift is not able to provide one-on-one counseling because of the volume of families we serve. Rachel's Gift does not endorse any specific type of individual counseling or therapy. Seeking therapy is a very personal process and each patient’s treatment needs to be assessed by a professional of the patient’s choice so that care can be personalized to meet individual needs.
