The Board of Directors of Postpartum Support Virginia has made the difficult decision to discontinue our Virtual Support Groups as of December 22, 2023. We understand that this is a loss for many of you…as it is for us too. Virtual Group were a lifeline when people needed them at the onset of COVID and for the years that followed. Despite the conveniences of a virtual group, we have found that moms and families are also Zoomed out and desire community.
If you would like to attend a PSVa In-Person Support Group in your community, please check PSVa’s support group calendar and filter by “In Person Support Group”: https://postpartumva.org/support-groups
If you wish to continue attending a virtual support group, Postpartum Support International (PSI) has 20+ different virtual support groups: https://www.postpartum.net/get-help/psi-online-support-meetings/ PSI’s groups are hosted on ShareWell. Please note that you have to create an account with ShareWell in order to register for PSI groups. Registration information in on their website via the link mentioned above. PSI allows 16 groups members to enter the group. Once the group reaches 16 members OR has started talk time, the group space will be closed.
If you have any questions/concerns, please contact Kristen Miller at kmiller@postpartumva.org or 540-546-0507 call/text.
This isn’t a goodbye for virtual groups but a see you later!
