“Dear PoPville,

A new group was created on the Random Reader Rant and Revel yesterday. DC Nurture is geared toward women who have experienced pregnancy loss and/or fertility issues. Some other posters and I found that women facing these issues tend to deal with them in isolation just when support is really needed.

I was thinking was to have some semi-structured meetings in a private, relaxed setting — maybe rotating homes — on whatever schedule people agree on. We could invite professional facilitators, therapists, etc. (or not). It will depend on what people want to do. I am a member of a professional group that runs this way and it’s a really terrific, supportive environment.

I’d be happy to host the first meeting at my house in Shaw.

People can find me/us through this email address — dcnurture(at)gmail.com or through the website DC Nurture.

Thanks for listening!

Beth, DC Nurture”
