Rainbow Families continues our Support Group for those in the LGBTQ+ community who have experienced grief and loss as part of their family building journey.  The aim of the group is to create a safe and comfortable space to share stories, resources and healing. These are peer-based groups and not to be considered a replacement for therapy or counseling.  

Summer 2022 Dates:   April 19, May 17, June 21

Sessions are Virtual - Available Nationwide - Rainbow Families Membership Not Required

No charge


Experiences of grief and loss can include, but are not limited to:

  • Pregnancy losses (including: miscarriage/stillbirth/infant loss/termination for medical reasons)
  • Failure of eggs to fertilize/embryo(s) to make to it to blastocyst stage (day 5)
  • Failure of transferred embryo to implant
  • Interrupted GC cycles or GC involving loss
  • Interrupted/failed donor cycle (egg, sperm or embryo)
  • Adoption falling through
  • Birth mother changing her mind
  • Foster child returned to their family of origin


Space is limited to help maintain a sense of privacy, intimacy and safety to interact.  We ask that participants join all 3 sessions.
