AMEND
The Florida Chapter of AMEND, Inc. 501(c)3
is Tampa Bay's longest running Pregnancy & Neonatal Loss Support Group.
We are fellow loss parents who run monthly peer led groups.
Our group welcomes families with any stage of baby loss including – early miscarriage, second trimester loss, full-term stillbirth, infant (neonatal) loss within one month of birth, life-limiting diagnosis, and TFMR.
We believe the goal of grief support is to not only aid in mending broken hearts, but also to create a safe place where parents never have to hide them. Here, parents can openly share, unconditionally grieve, and connect deeply with others who understand this unique and tragic kind of loss.
You do not have to walk through baby loss alone, and you are welcome to attend at any point within your grief journey, even if you're just finding us years later.
We offer free monthly meetings
in-person in both Central Tampa and St. Pete, along with virtually via Zoom.
