We are a

through early infancy.
Sharing Parents is a non-profit
organization. There is no fee to attend our meetings.
We offer a
variety of meetings at two locations in Sacramento, CA.

HERE to review our up-coming meetings and events.
General
Meetings are for bereaved parents suffering the loss of their baby(ies)
no matter how long ago. Couples are encouraged to attend. Some people come
to share, others come just to listen. Supportive friends and family are
welcome. There is no pre-registration, and there is no fee.
 Held on the second
Sunday of every month, except in May when it is the first Sunday of the
month.
All General meetings are held
at the
Mercy Women's Center
from 7pm to 9pm.
Lending Library is
available.
Subsequent
Pregnancy Meetings are for parents contemplating a future pregnancy
and those who are currently pregnant. Couples are encouraged to attend.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE MAY BE INFANTS AT THESE MEETINGS, IN CELEBRATION OF
A SUCCESSFUL PREGNANCY.
Held (usually, but not
always) on the fourth
Monday of every month.
All Subsequent
Pregnancy meetings are held at the Mercy
Women's Center from 7pm to 9pm.
Short Term Grief is a series of 4 or 5 weekly meetings for parents
with recent losses (often within a year). There will be specific topics to
discuss each week. This is a safe place to share your grief with people
who have experienced similar losses. It is also a time when our small
groups often bond and find that the support they gain is accompanied by
newly found friendships. Couples are encouraged to attend.
Meeting location,
dates and times to be determined.
The sessions are
offered on an "as needed" basis. Please call 916-424-5150 if you would
like to attend a session.
All sessions are led
by a Sharing Parents volunteer.
Prenatal Decision
Phone support is available for those parents who
have made the difficult decision to interrupt their very wanted
pregnancies after learning that their baby had severe or fatal fetal
anomalies. Parents are also welcome to attend General Meetings at any
time.
For more information, please contact Sharing Parents at (916) 424-5150 or
