Hello, I am a RN in an impoverished, urban city. I am looking to start a support group for the inner city women who have experienced a pregnancy loss. Right now I am doing the research on programs in other inner cities to see how they run and talk to nurses who run them.

If you know of or happen to run such a program could you please send me the information if you don't mind. I have a 6 week deadline to see if this is a do-able program. I know it is, and it's very needed so hopefully this community can help me out.

Thank you!

When I was a PHN for the County of San Diego, I referred a client to the following support group after she lost her baby:

I left the county shortly after that so I'm unsure if she ever attended the support group or not but it appears to be a good resource. Hope that helps!
