During the month of May, Any Baby Can is launching new free online support groups to help individuals and parents manage the stressors and life changes resulting from the COVID19 pandemic. Licensed social workers and therapists will facilitate the support groups. We are starting support groups focused on adults and parents and will consider launching groups for children and youth in the future depending on the level of interest.
Individuals interested in participating in the groups are required to register in advance.
Once individuals register, they will receive information of how to access the online support groups. All groups are held in Central Time. Here is the schedule for these support groups, offered in English and Spanish:
